Lawsuit aims to block 500 oil trucks a day through Utah's scenic byway
Original: Utah’s ‘world’s longest art gallery’ could see 500 oil trucks a day. A new lawsuit aims to stop that.
A new lawsuit seeks to stop a plan that could send up to 500 oil tanker trucks a day through a Utah route known as the world's longest art gallery, a nine-mile stretch of dramatic rock art and canyon scenery. Conservation groups argue the heavy truck traffic would damage the region's air, quiet and cultural landscape, setting up a fight over energy development versus protected public lands.
Why now: New legal challenge against oil truck traffic through a celebrated scenic and cultural area.
