The rule
Bicycles are permitted on Interstate highways in Utah. UDOT permits cycling on the shoulders of most Interstate segments in Utah (including substantial portions of I-15, I-70, I-80 and I-84) where no reasonable alternative parallel route exists. Specific urban segments along the Wasatch Front and several tunnels and bridges are signed prohibited; verify against UDOT bicycle-on-Interstate guidance before riding.
What this means in practice
Interstate cycling is legal in Utah, but ride only where you have a wide, clean shoulder and exit at the first signed bicycle exit when conditions deteriorate.
