Route description

Starting at the main gate of the Intermountain Power Plant in rural Millard County, State Route 174 travels straight in a west-southwest direction for about 8 miles (13 km) along Brush Wellman Road through the Sevier Desert before ending at its intersection with U.S. Route 6.[1][3]
