Assessment
History notes
I don't think [http://www.le.state.ut.us/~1997/bills/hbillenr/HB0266.htm the 1997 law] applies, since it's talking about UDOT. The only relevant section appears to be "The commission may provide funds for public or private tollway pilot projects from General Fund monies appropriated by the Legislature to the commission for that purpose." --NE2 06:24, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
:[http://le.utah.gov/~code/TITLE17/htm/17_50_030700.htm This] is the relevant law. [http://www.le.state.ut.us/~2000/bills/hbillenr/HB0130.htm This 2000 bill] renumbered and reworded it, but did not change the meaning. It had previously been last amended by Chapter 147, Laws of Utah 1994, and is in fact a [http://books.google.com/books?id=1bs4AAAAIAAJ&pg=PA201&dq=%22for+taking+tolls+on+public+roads+or+highways very old law]. So it appears that no law needed to be passed for the road to be built. --NE2 07:02, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Who owns the bridge? It straddles the county line; did they get a franchise from Davis County? [http://connection.ebscohost.com/content/article/1028923773.html They did.] Can anyone access the full article? --NE2 06:38, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
[http://swc.infobytes.us/ag_min/c00/062700m.pdf "Councilmember Petersen moved to adopt Resolution 00-027 to accept the Adams Avenue extension connecting to I-84 within the South Weber City limits with the amendment that the City require the developer to install a gate to control access to the area underneath the overpass."] I'm not sure exactly what this means - did they accept that it was built or accept it as a public street? --NE2 09:03, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
:I think that they accept the road as a road in the city, as they required the AAP people to install a gate to block access to the river from the parkway to avoid campers. --Admrb♉ltz (t • c • [{{fullurl:Special:Log|user=Admrboltz}} log]) 09:09, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
The main property owner (and maybe the only one when it was built) is "Pleasant Valley Ranch, LLC", [http://news.google.com/archivesearch?num=100&hl=en&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tab=wn&q=%22pleasant+valley+ranch%22+doug+stephens owned by Doug Stephens]. --NE2 23:37, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

The interchange was built after I-84: [http://mapper.acme.com/?ll=41.14906,-111.96716&z=13&t=T] --NE2 23:14, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
Assessment, part deux
I'd say, with all the expansion that's been going into the article, this is a borderline B-class article. Borderline, because the history section is a bit short. But there isn't much history to go with this anyway, as any opposition, protest, or other things you find with the construction of toll roads was simply not present. This is just my opinion and if you disagree go ahead and revert my actions. Regards, CL — 03:45, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
:I'll get to that within the next few days. --NE2 04:55, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
::NE - were you planning on getting back to this? --Admrb♉ltz (t • c • [{{fullurl:Special:Log|user=Admrboltz}} log]) 17:49, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
