State Route 241 is a state highway completely within Utah County in northern Utah, in the cities of Orem and Lindon. The route connects SR-114 (Geneva Road) to US-89 (State Street) via an interchange at I-15.
The route begins at an intersection with SR-114 (Geneva Road) on the boundary of Orem and Lindon and heads due east on 1600 North. After coming to a diamond interchange with I-15 after only 0.2 miles (0.32 km), the route continues for approximately 1.15 miles (1.85 km) to its eastern terminus at US-89 (State Street). Much of the route is located on the Lindon-Orem municipal boundary; as such, though it is primarily referred to as 1600 North, it is also 600 South in the Lindon grid system. [2]
Before Interstate 15 was built, truck traffic bound for the Geneva Steel mill used SR-114 to access the mill. However, with the construction of the interstate, heavy truck traffic associated with the steel mill began to use 1600 North to connect to the I-15 interchange. The city of Orem, who maintained the road at the time, felt that this truck traffic was of statewide significance, and as such requested that this portion of 1600 North be added to the state highway system. However, at the time, the Utah Department of Transportation would not accept the road due to its poor condition. After Orem had reconstructed the roadway, it was added to the state highway system in 1969 as SR-241. [3]
The route remained unchanged until 2019. By that time, the city of Orem did not have adequate funding to make necessary improvements to the 1600 North corridor between I-15 and US-89, so the cities requested that UDOT take over this segment of roadway. [4] The Utah Transportation Commission approved the extension of SR-241 on November 15, 2019, after Orem, Lindon, and UDOT had signed a cooperative agreement detailing the terms of the jurisdictional transfer. [5]
The entire route is in Utah County.

It is a major thoroughfare throughout the Wasatch Front as it runs north–south for 70.8 miles (113.9 km), linking US-6 near Elberta to US-89 in Woods Cross. The route intersects several major freeways and highways in the Salt Lake City metropolitan area including I-215, I-80, and I-15. The route is more commonly referred to as Redwood Road, after the street it is routed along throughout Salt Lake County.

Interstate 80 Business is an unofficial business loop of Interstate 80 (I-80) that is 2.26 miles (3.64 km) long and serves as the main street for the US cities of West Wendover, Nevada, and Wendover, Utah, along a roadway named Wendover Boulevard. Wendover Boulevard was originally part of US Route 40 (US 40), which connected California to New Jersey via Nevada and Utah. A portion of the Nevada segment is concurrent with US 93 Alternate, and the entire portion in Utah is coterminous with Utah State Route 58 (SR-58). The Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) applied for the business loop designation in the early 1980s, but the designation has never been approved; nevertheless, signs are posted in both states. Between July 1976 and 1993, I-80 Bus was concurrent with Nevada State Route 224 (SR 224) in Nevada.

I-84 enters Box Elder County near Snowville before becoming concurrent with I-15 in Tremonton. The concurrent highways travel south through Brigham City and Ogden and separate near Ogden-Hinckley Airport. Turing east along the Davis County border, I-84 intersects US Route 89 (US-89) and enters Weber Canyon as well as Morgan County. While in Morgan County, I-84 passes the Devil's Gate-Weber Hydroelectric Power Plant and Devil's Slide rock formation. Past Morgan, the highway crosses into Summit County, past the Thousand Mile Tree before reaching its eastern terminus at I-80 near Echo.

It is Utah's primary and only north–south interstate highway, as the vast majority of the state's population lives along its corridor; the Logan metropolitan area is the state's only Metropolitan Statistical Area through which I-15 does not pass. In 1998, the Utah State Legislature designated Utah's entire portion of the road as the Veterans Memorial Highway.
