State Route 35 is a highway in northern Utah connecting SR-32 in Francis to SR-87 in Duchesne in a span of sixty-two miles.

Route description

From its western terminus in Francis, the highway runs southwest until the junction of Soapstone Basin Road, where it turns south. Afterwards it heads in a general west direction until Hanna, where it again turns southwest. After a while it straightens out to the west until the eastern terminus near Duchesne.

History

The road from Wanship south to Kamas was added to the state highway system in 1910 as part of the route from Salt Lake City to Echo via Park City Junction. In 1914, a branch was added from Kamas southeast to Stewart's Ranch (beyond Woodland); it was extended to Stockmore in 1918.Utah Department of Transportation, [http://www.udot.utah.gov/main/f?p=100:pg:5285268476414239680:::1:T,V:1348, Highway Resolutions] : PDFlink|1= [http://www.udot.utah.gov/main/uconowner.gf?n=200609140939311 Route 35] |2=15.6 MB, updated October 2007, accessed May 2008] The legislature extended it farther to Tabiona in 1927 and assigned the SR-35 designation to the entire route from SR-4 (US-530, now I-80) at Wanship to Tabiona. [cite UTSR law|year=1927|quote=35. From Wanship Summit county, via Peoa Kamas and Stockmore to Tabiona Duchesne county.] In 1931, it was extended to SR-6 (US-40) in Duchesne, where it would end for many years. [cite UTSR law|year=1931|quote=(35) From Wanship, Summit county, on route 4 via Peoa, Kamas, Stockmore, and Tabiona to Duchesne.] A regional renumbering in 1964 saw the east end cut back to the junction with SR-87 north of Duchesne, as SR-87 was extended south to that city.

State Route 241 was a loop along Bench Creek Road east of Woodland. It was created in 1947 [cite UTSR law|year=1947|chapter=49|quote=Route 241. From route 35 at Woodland southeasterly on south side of Provo River to route 35 near Stewart's Ranch.] and existed until 1969.Utah Department of Transportation, [http://www.udot.utah.gov/main/f?p=100:pg:5285268476414239680:::1:T,V:1348, Highway Resolutions] : PDFlink|1= [http://www.udot.utah.gov/main/uconowner.gf?n=200609201007101 Route 241] |2=2.83 MB, updated November 2007, accessed May 2008]

When US-189 was created in 1938, it overlapped US-40 between Heber and Kimball Junction,Fact|date=June 2008 but it was soon modified to leave US-40 at Hailstone (now under the Jordanelle Reservoir) and mostly follow the present SR-32 through Kamas to Wanship (including what was then SR-35 north of Francis).Rand McNally [http://www.broermapsonline.org/members/NorthAmerica/UnitedStates/NorthernRockies/randmcnally_ra_1946_015.html Auto Road Atlas] , 1946] For a time, US-189 was moved back to the 1938 routing, with US-189 Alternate on the Kamas route,Utah State Road Commission (Rand McNally), Utah Official Highway Map, 1956] but by the 1977 renumbering it was back in Kamas, and SR-35 was removed from the Francis-Wanship roadway (where it had not been signed for many years). In 1989, SR-35 became part of a new SR-32 as one of many changes caused by the flooding of the Jordanelle Reservoir, but the changes were partially reverted in 1990, and SR-35 was restored to its 1977 alignment.
