Utah State Route 123 (SR-123) is a state highway in the U.S. state of Utah. Spanning 11.4 miles (18.3 km), it connects the city of East Carbon with US-6 / US-191 in Carbon County.

## Route description

State Route 123 begins at Sunnyside Junction on US-6/US-191, about 15 miles (24 km) southeast of Price. It heads east, passing through East Carbon-Sunnyside at the base of the Book Cliffs. It turns to the northeast and terminates shortly after it enters Whitmore Canyon.

## History

The road from Sunnyside Junction through Sunnyside to Columbia (now all part of East Carbon-Sunnyside) was added to the state highway system in 1931, initially numbered SR-124 but changed to SR-123 in 1933. The route was shortened in 1935 by moving the eastern terminus back into Sunnyside, and splitting off the portion from Sunnyside to Columbia as SR-124.
