State Route 104 (SR-104) is a state highway in the U.S. state of Utah that sits completely within Ogden in Weber County. The eastern end of this route is a one-way pair of 20th Street and 21st Street that connects I-15 and SR-126 to downtown Ogden, a distance of about 2.5 miles (4.0 km).
Route description
[edit]From the western terminus at SR-126 (1900 West) in Ogden, the route is named 21st Street, a standard two-way, east–west minor arterial, with an interchange with I-15 near the west end. This section of the route is about 2 miles (3.2 km) long. About half a mile west of the eastern terminus at SR-204 (Wall Ave), as it starts to pass over railroad tracks, the route splits into a one-way pair, with the eastbound lanes continuing as 21st street, and the westbound lanes located one block to the north as 20th Street.
History
[edit]The route was established in 1935. Prior to 1969, the western terminus was the same, but the road followed a slightly more southern alignment along Wilson Lane and about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) to the east, the route turned southeast (now Exchange Road[2]) and ended at 24th Street (then SR-37, now SR-53) just west of its viaduct.[3]
In 1965, in order to relieve congestion on the inadequate 24th Street viaduct, the State Road Commission approved funds for the construction of 20th Street between SR-104 west of the railroads (Wilson Lane) and Wall Avenue for the 1968 fiscal year urban program.[3] This new roadway was designated SR-205 and was about 1.2 miles (1.9 km) long. That route was deleted in 1969 and transferred to SR-104.
Major intersections
[edit]The entire route is in Ogden, Weber County.
