The purpose of this project is facilitating the relocation of the existing Port of Entry along U.S. 6 near Helper, UT to a new site along U.S. 6 near Carbonville to enhance safety of the port. The new port will have facilities and accesses on both sides of U.S. 6. The new site is approximately 7 miles south of the existing Port of Entry and approximately 3.5 miles north of Price, UT.
