In 2012, UDOT calculated that 1,145 vehicles used the highway on an average day, representing a decrease in traffic over the last two years (1,170 in 2011, 1,175 in 2010).{{cite report|url=http://www.udot.utah.gov/main/uconowner.gf?n=7502314351643878|title=Traffic on Utah Highways|page=31|date=2012|access-date=December 20, 2013|publisher=Utah Department of Transportation|format=PDF|last=Staff}} Eighteen percent of this was truck traffic.{{cite report|url=http://www.udot.utah.gov/main/uconowner.gf?n=11139106792388678|title=Truck Traffic on Utah Highways|page=30|date=2012|access-date=December 20, 2013|publisher=Utah Department of Transportation|format=PDF|last=Staff}}
