[edit] History notes

Most of this is from the history PDF. Opening years are from [1].

  • May 12, 1931: added to the state highway system from South Bountiful (Parkin Overpass) to North Farmington Junction (89/273)
  • 1935 (ca.): Parkin Overpass built
  • A 1937 map shows that SR-1 where bypassed was US-91 Alternate. US-89 is very strange on that map - Wyoming takes it south via present US-189 to east of Evanston, while Utah has it beginning at either Ogden or Brigham and running with US-91 to Logan, and ending at the Idaho state line.
  • 1953: extended north to South Layton on ex-SR-1 (ex-SR-1 between Lagoon Junction and North Farmington Junction became part of SR-49); swapped with SR-1 between South Bountiful and North Farmington Junction
  • May 8, 1961: anything?
  • 1962: extended south on ex-SR-1 to Becks; the rest of ex-SR-1 there became SR-169; I-15 opened from Becks to North Bountiful in 1962
  • 1966: extended north on ex-SR-1 to Utah Hot Springs (89/126)
  • November 23, 1966: I-15 opened from South Layton to SR-79 in Ogden[2]
  • March 7, 1969: truncated to Shepard Lane and extended along ex-local Shepard Lane; Shepard Lane to North Farmington Junction became SR-272; North Farmington Junction to Kaysville became SR-273, which extended over ex-local 200 North; Kaysville to South Layton became local; South Layton to Roy became southern extension of SR-84; Roy to Utah Hot Springs became SR-50
  • 1971-72: I-15 upgraded from North Bountiful to Lagoon Junction
  • 1977: I-15 upgraded from Lagoon Junction to South Layton
  • May 20, 1977, truncated at south end to South Bountiful (was US-89 to the south)
    • SR-50 became SR-26 where not eliminated by US-89
  • August 26, 1977, SR-84 became SR-126 south of Utah Hot Springs
  • February 9, 2001, truncated at south end and absorbed SR-131; part of ex-SR-106 became SR-68, and the rest to Bountiful City
  • March 9, 2001, SR-273 absorbed SR-272
  • June 22, 2001, ex-SR-272 part of SR-273 transferred to Farmington City
