Route description

State Route 180, a minor arterial connector starts at Interstate 15's southbound ramp for exit 276, a diamond interchange. The route proceeds north on 500 East, crossing the interchange via an overpass, and continues through American Fork for 1.0 mile (1.6 km) until terminating at US-89, known locally as State Street.[1][3]

History

In the late 1950s and early 1960s, Interstate 15 was being constructed in Utah County, parallel to the main north-south thoroughfare, US-89 / US-91 (designated as Route 1 by the state legislature).[4] State Route 180 was established in 1961 to serve as a connector between the new interstate and Route 1. The route has remained unchanged since then, undergoing only wording changes in the description to accommodate the realignment of Route 1 to the interstate, and its subsequent renumbering.[2]

Major intersections

The entire route is in American Fork, Utah County.

gollark: As you control the instance, you can MAKE it lower.
gollark: No, the history was fine, the block value function for new instances was wrong.
gollark: It didn't affect the main node since the database for that was ported over from the old version.
gollark: It used to be the case, I think, that block value and block work for low indices were mixed up somehow.
gollark: Not just "there isn't much documentation on it", but "there isn't much documentation and some things literally do not work", unless the block value issue was patched.
