State Route 210 is a state route in the U.S. state of Utah that is the access road for Little Cottonwood Canyon and the ski resorts of Alta and Snowbird. The 13.62 mi (21.92 km) highway straddles the southeastern edge of the Salt Lake Valley before it enters the mouth of Little Cottonwood Canyon.

Route description

The highway heads south on Wasatch Boulevard from the point SR-190 turns east from that road onto Fort Union Boulevard. The four-lane undivided highway continues south-southwest before turning south-southeast again past the intersection of 3500 East. The route then turns off of Wasatch Boulevard and onto Little Cottonwood Canyon Road past the junction of Danish Road and turns east-southeast approaching SR-209. The route turns east entering the mouth of Little Cottonwood Canyon and continues east and east-northeast before terminating in Alta.cite web | title=Google Maps | publisher=Google | url=http://maps.google.com ]

History

The state legislature defined State Route 210 in 1941 to run from SR-4 (US-40, now I-80) at the mouth of Parley's Canyon south along Wasatch Boulevard to Little Cottonwood Canyon, then east through the canyon to Alta. [cite UTSR law|year=1941|chapter=34|quote=Route 210. From route 4 in Parley's Canyon via Wasatch Boulevard and Little Cottonwood Canyon to Alta.] In 1945, the west end was moved to the intersection of Fort Union Boulevard (then SR-152) and Highland Drive. The route now followed Highland Drive and Bengal Boulevard, rejoining the former alignment at 3500 East (then part of Wasatch Boulevard). [cite UTSR law|year=1945|quote=Route 210. From route 152 at seventieth south street southeasterly via twentieth east street and Little Cottonwood Canyon to Alta.] 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=200609191605231 Route 215] |2=9.62 MB, updated November 2007, accessed May 2008, p. 14] A short piece of Wasatch Boulevard north of 3300 South remained a state highway, as an extension of SR-171, [cite UTSR law|year=1945|quote=Route 171. From route 1 south of Salt Lake City east via Thirty-third south Street to Wasach [sic] Boulevard thence northerly to route 4 in Parley's Canyon.] but the remainder was removed from the system.

State Route 229 was also defined in 1941, connecting SR-210 near Alta to SR-152 (now SR-190) near Brighton along a proposed roadway. [cite UTSR law|year=1941|chapter=34|quote=Route 229. From Alta to Brighton.] The definition of SR-210 was changed in 1969 to absorb this mountainous route, but in 1994 it was truncated back to Alta, the extension having not been constructed. Also in 1969, the west end was changed again, beginning at SR-152 near the mouth of Big Cottonwood Canyon and following Wasatch Boulevard to the Little Cottonwood Canyon turnoff. The Alta Bypass Road was added to SR-210 in 1975, providing an alternate route when snow slides close the main roadway.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=200609191600411 Route 210] |2=3.88 MB, updated November 2007, accessed May 2008] A final extension on the west end was made in 1987, continuing north on Wasatch Boulevard and northwest on a then-proposed limited access extension of 6200 South to I-215. However, a year later, this instead became part of the recently-formed SR-190 so that SR-210 would not have to be remileposted.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=200609191036091 Route 190] |2=7.57 MB, updated November 2007, accessed May 2008]
