State Route 282 (SR-282) is a state highway in the U.S. state of Utah. It is composed of three non-continuous segments, which combined consist of all the state-maintained roadways on the University of Utah campus.
The route is made up of three connected segments.
The first segment of SR-282 begins at the intersection of 500 South (SR-186) and Guardsman Way/Campus Center Drive (1580 East). It proceeds northeast for about 0.06 miles (0.097 km) before coming to a roundabout with South Campus Drive (segment B of SR-282), where segment A ends. [2]
The second segment of SR-282 begins at the intersection of University Street (1340 East) and South Campus Drive (400 South), proceeding east on the latter. Shortly thereafter, the Red Line of the Utah Transit Authority's TRAX light rail system begins running in the median. The route continues to the east, passing Rice–Eccles Stadium before turning to the northeast. Shortly after passing through a roundabout where it meets the first segment of SR-282, South Campus Drive passes the University South Campus station on the Red Line. It then passes the Jon M. Huntsman Center before coming to an end at the junction with Mario Capecchi Drive, which carries the third SR-282 segment. [2]
The third segment of SR-282 begins at Foothill Drive (SR-186) and heads to the north on Mario Capecchi Drive. This road was previously known as Wasatch Drive, but was renamed after Mario Capecchi, a researcher at the University of Utah, after he won the 2007 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. The road continues to the north, passing South Campus Drive (the second SR-282 segment), where the TRAX Red Line begins running along the west side of the road. It continues past the Fort Douglas station on the Red Line and passes underneath the Eccles Legacy Bridge before veering to the northeast, along with the light rail. After bending back to the north again, it passes the Red Line's University Medical Center station, the terminus of that line. This area contains numerous medical facilities, including the University Hospital, Huntsman Cancer Institute, Primary Children's Medical Center, and the Moran Eye Center. After passing the medical complex, Mario Capecchi Drive comes to an end at North Campus Drive, where SR-282 turns west. North Campus Drive continues west and south for approximately another 0.7 miles (1.1 km). SR-282 ends where North Campus Drive turns west and becomes 100 South. [2]
The first roads on the University were added to the state highway system in 1935 as part of SR-186. [3] However, in 1962, they were split off as SR-181A. [4] In 1969, the number block from 281 to 320 was dedicated to routes serving state parks and institutions, and SR-181A became SR-282 as a result. [5]
As it was defined in 1969, the route consisted of three main segments. The first segment began at 500 South and went north on 1500 East, turning right on the Peripheral Road (now South Campus Drive) and proceeding east to Wasatch Drive (now Mario Capecchi Drive). The second segment was a short connection from 500 South to the Peripheral Road on Guardsman Way (Campus Center Drive), while the third segment consisted of all of Wasatch Drive, from Foothill Drive to what is now North Campus Drive. At some point between then and 1988, the route was extended east on North Campus Drive and Medical Drive North to the University Hospital.
In 1988, the northern end of SR-282 was realigned to the east onto the newly built Medical Drive. As a result, the portions on Wasatch Drive north of the Medical Drive junction and the spur to the hospital were removed from the state system, and maintenance of these segments was transferred to the University of Utah. When the legislature updated the legislative description in 1990, it extended the route west along North Campus Drive to 100 South, as well as west along South Campus Drive from 1500 East to University Street. The portion along 1500 East was removed from the description at this time, as that roadway had been replaced by a parking lot and a pedestrian walkway. [5] [6]
The entire route is in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County.

The University Line is an obsolete designation to a light rail line of Utah Transit Authority's (UTA) TRAX system in Salt Lake City. It was the second TRAX line opened by UTA, after the Sandy/Salt Lake Line opened in 1999. The original line ran from the Delta Center Station to the Stadium Station, which is west of the Rice-Eccles Stadium on the University of Utah campus. The eastern end of the line was extended to the University Medical Center Station in 2003, and the western end was extended in 2008 to the new Salt Lake City Intermodal Hub. The University Line continued running under that name through August 6, 2011, after which this designation was no longer used following a system redesign. The University of Utah is now served by the Red Line.
State Route 186 (SR-186) is a state highway entirely within Salt Lake City, capital of the U.S. state of Utah. It forms a quarter-beltway connecting US-89 and I-15 leading north from Salt Lake City to I-80 leading east; as such, it effectively forms the missing (non-freeway) quarter of the I-215 belt route around the city, though it does not directly connect to I-215 at the north end. Despite this beltway role, the route passes through downtown Salt Lake City because downtown is built right up to the northern mountains surrounding City Creek Canyon. The portion of the route connecting downtown to I-80 is a high-capacity street heavily used by commuters, especially those travelling to the University of Utah or between downtown and eastern neighborhoods, but the portion on Capitol Hill north of downtown is much narrower and has sharp turns around the Capitol grounds. The roadway runs 9.34 miles (15.03 km) along Victory Road, Columbus Street, 300 North, State Street, 400 South, 500 South, and Foothill Drive.
State Route 171 (SR-171) is a state highway in the Salt Lake City metropolitan area in northern Utah that runs from SR-111 in Magna in the west side of the city to Interstate 215 in the city of Millcreek in the eastern part valley. In its sixteen-mile span, the route is named 3500 South and 3300 South.
State Route 71 (SR-71) is a state highway completely within the Salt Lake City metropolitan area in the northern portion of the US state of Utah. It runs from SR-154 in the southwest side of the city to SR-186 in Downtown Salt Lake City. The route spans 22.47 miles (36.16 km) as it runs along portions of 12600 South, 12300 South, 900 East, and 700 East streets.
State Route 152 (SR-152) is a state highway in the suburbs of Salt Lake City, Utah connecting SR-71 in Murray to I-215 and city-maintained Highland Drive in Cottonwood Heights, though for almost all of its length it forms the border between Murray and Holladay. The route, which is 3.04 miles (4.89 km), is laid on the entire length of the Van Winkle Expressway and a portion of Highland Drive.
State Route 269 (SR-269) is a state highway in the U.S. state of Utah that sits completely within Salt Lake City in Salt Lake County. It consists entirely of a one-way pair of 500 South and 600 South, two parallel one-way streets that connect I-15 and I-80 to downtown Salt Lake City. SR-269 was designated in 1960 and constructed later that decade, coinciding with the construction of I-15 in the area.
State Route 210 (SR-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.
University Medical Center, often referred to as simply Medical Center, is a light rail station on the campus of the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, Utah, in the United States, served by the Red Line of the Utah Transit Authority's (UTA) TRAX light rail system.

It was later rerouted to South Jordan and renamed the Red Line in August 2011, running as an all-day route. The current line runs from the University of Utah Medical Center in Salt Lake City through the south end of Downtown Salt Lake City, South Salt Lake, Murray, Midvale, West Jordan, and South Jordan to the University of Utah's South Jordan Medical Center in Daybreak.
