The work we do as a Department of Transportation is crucial to the state, now as much as ever. For that reason, we have continued to keep our business moving forward while helping support the State of Utah’s efforts to slow the spread of coronavirus. UDOT employees and partners have kept Utah moving by providing the services so many businesses and citizens depend on while also finding ways throughout the pandemic to protect the individuals and teams that provide those services.
All UDOT offices are open and face coverings are no longer required. But we ask that if you are experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms please stay home. We also recommend that if you would like to meet with a certain employee that you make an appointment to assure that the individual is available at the time of your visit. To make an appointment please contact the individual directly or use the contact information below

In 1954 the Daniels Port of Entry was constructed. The current facility sits very near the original location on Highway 40. With oil and gas exploration in the Uintah Basin, Daniels is a key location for monitoring of crude haulers to the refineries in Salt Lake City.

Constructed well before Interstate 80 was built, the Echo Port of Entry has been supporting commercial vehicle traffic since 1952. Originally built farther down the canyon at Echo Junction where the UDOT Maintenance sheds are located, the port was relocated closer to the Utah Wyoming border. It was not much more than a shack then. Echo now has a functional building and truck inspection bay.
In 1954 the Kanab Weigh Station was constructed on Highway 89 just north of Kanab near the Utah Arizona border. The Kanab site was the last of the weigh stations mandated by the 1951 Utah State Legislature to open. Kanab was operated by the Utah Highway Patrol as all the ports were until the 1990 Legislative session transferred responsibility of the ports to the Utah Department of Transportation.
The Monticello Port of Entry is nestled at the base of the Abajo or Blue Mountains on US 491 near the intersection of US 191 just 17 miles from the Colorado border. Monticello sits at an elevation of over 7,000 feet, so the Port is the highest above sea level of any of the State’s Ports. Monticello was built to monitor truck traffic on US 491 coming from Colorado, and on US 191 coming and going from Arizona to the south.
Nestled on the western edge of the Wasatch mountain range on US Highway 6, the Peerless port of Entry was constructed by a 1951 Special Session of the Legislature. Peerless is located between the Castle Gate landmark and Helper, UT.

The St. George Port of Entry located at mile marker one just north of the Arizona border is unique among Utah’s ports as it is part of a joint operating agreement with Arizona. That means on both north and southbound sides you will find Utah and Arizona Port personnel sharing the buildings and operations. Originally constructed on US-91 at Santa Clara (that station closed in 1939) but was re-established in 1951. After the completion of I-15 in St. George, the Port was relocated to its present location and was rebuilt in 1992 as a state of the art facility and the first totally computer automated port in the nation.

Adjacent to the Nevada state line and the Bonneville Salt Flats, the Wendover Port of Entry has been in its present location on I-80 since 1954. Originally constructed on Wendover Blvd just across the street from where the Best Western Hotel stands today, the station served as dispatch for the local ambulance, police and fire departments until UDOT took took over the Port operation.
