SMITH Deseret News Staff Writer PRICE A stretch of through breath-takinscenery between Fremont Junction (34 miles east of and Green River will be e east and open to west traffic in fall of 1970. But in the meantime, d motorists enroute to Grand Junction and Denver sometimes get confused. Trying to fake the route which appears as a proposed highway on many oil company maps and on one as an existing road, the eager tourists often wind up in Emery, about 15 miles northeast of Fremont Junction. The tourists usually think they are lost. Mrs. Rose Olsen, who lives on Emerys main street across from a highway rest area, says many vacationers spread out their maps and lament, Im lost, can you help me? We must have missed the turnoff. Mrs. Olsen explains they are on the right road, but must continue another 55 miles northeast to Price, and then must go southeast to Green River. The new section will go almost directly of east and west. E. J. Swapp, Ferron, one of the project engineers who has five been working on years and longer than almost anyone else, says he also meets tourists who intend to go directly to Green River. He points out that their tires g Sal-in- two-lan- east-boun- - would r.ot last long. The highway roadbed is all that is constructed and consists of graded earth with some graveled areas. It is not surfaced. The highway runs through the San Rafael Swell and San Rafael Reef country. Mrs. Olsen says that many Emery County people now go there for picnics as do many Carbon County residents. James L. Deaton, F.ice. district enginee in charge of the project, said he thinks tourists, now interested only in hurrying on their way, will be so impressed with the scenery on the new interstate they will want to return. The mountain and desert is very different landscape from what many of them, par- Easterners, ticularly have seen before. Deaton says the high- way does not now appear on any Utah State Highway map, but the work is progressing very well. Cost of the opening in 1970 will be $13.5 million for construction of the road bed. Surfacing will cost another $14.2 million. From Green River to the Colorado border, the new will have a route similar to A the existing 50-section of this in the Cisco area, from Whitehouse to Cottonwood, is also expected to open in the fail of 1970. Westbound traffic on will intersect at Cove Fort. From here tourists can go south to St. George or north to Salt Lake City. Solicitor General Enters Lake Case Erwin N.
