Utah State Route 95

State Route 95 or Bicentennial Highway is a state highway located in the southeast of the U.S. state of Utah. The highway is an access road for tourism in Lake Powell and does not serve any cities, except for the small town of Hanksville at its western terminus. Although the highway has existed since the 1930s as a primitive dirt road, it received its name as its dedication as a paved state highway coincided with the U.S. Bicentennial in 1976. The highway forms part of the Trail of the Ancients National Scenic Byway.

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or route:

    “A state always calls itself fatherland when it is ready for murder.”
    —Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)

    “By a route obscure and lonely,
    Haunted by ill angels only,
    Where an eidolon, named Night,
    On a black throne reigns upright,
    I have reached these lands but newly
    From an ultimate dim Thule—
    From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
    Out of space—out of time.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
