Utah State Route 68 starts in Davis County, westbound as 500 South in Bountiful, then turns southbound and turns into Redwood Road through Salt Lake County, and keeps southbound and enters Utah County as Camp Williams Road. Then it heads along the west coast of Utah Lake. It ends finally at U.S. Route 6, in the small town of Elberta, west of Goshen. SR-68 is a main westside artery in Salt Lake City, and traffic can be backed up during rush hour. It has three lanes on each side (not counting the center lane, which makes seven lanes). UTA bus route 43 (Bluffdale) goes on UT-68, from Downtown Salt Lake to Bluffdale, and vice versa. Main freeway intersections include Interstate 80, SR-201, and Interstate 215.
[edit] Legal definition
From Route 6 at Elberta northerly on Redwood Road and Fifth South Street in Bountiful; then southerly on 2nd West in Bountiful to Route 89 in Bountiful.
