State Route 270 is a short north–south thoroughfare that sits completely within Salt Lake City in Salt Lake County, entirely along South West Temple Street. The southern terminus is at West 900 South, with ramps to and from I-15/I-80 at exit 305D; its northern terminus is at US-89 (West 400 South, formerly SR-186).
Route description[edit]
After its southern terminus, SR-270 heads north for its entire course, having a dual intersection with SR-269, one eastbound and one westbound. Afterwards it terminates at US-89.
