From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
State Highway 90 is a 41.9 mi (67.4 km) long state highway at the western edge of Colorado. SH 90 begins in the west at the border with Utah where it becomes Utah State Route 46 which continues westward to meet U.S. Highway 191 about twenty miles south of Moab, UT. From the Utah border the road passes eastward for about 34 miles through a very remote area to join up with State Highway 141 at Vancorum where this portion of the road ends. The road then reappears approximately eight miles west of Montrose and travels into downtown Montrose where its western end occurs at its confluence with U.S. Highway 50 and U.S. Highway 550. The two sections of the road are joined by a 49 mile section comprised mostly of unpaved road and a brief stretch of SH 141 neither of which are officially part of SH 90. Thus the official length of the road is 41.9 miles, but driving from one end to the other will require traveling at least 89 miles. If only paved routes are used, that distance increases considerably.
