'''State Route 130''' ('''SR-130''') is a state highway in the U.S. state of Utah. Spanning {{convert|43|mi|km}}, it connects the town of Minersville in Beaver County with the cities of Cedar City, Enoch, and Parowan to the south in Iron County.
==Route description== SR-130 begins at the south Cedar City interchange with Interstate 15 (I-15). Following Main Street through the city, it starts to the northeast before turning north through the center of the city. As the highway reaches the north end of the city, it meets I-15 in another interchange, continuing north through Enoch as the Minersville Highway. After leaving Enoch, (at the northern end of Cedar Valley), the highway continues north through sparsely populated areas, intersecting Gap Road, an extension of the old Lund Highway about {{convert|12|mi|km}} north of Enoch. Gap Road connects to Parowan, and is named for the pass it traverses, Parowan Gap, site of ancient petroglyphs, evidence that it was on a major thoroughfare of early Native Americans. SR-130 continues in a generally north-northwest direction through the Black Mountains, entering Beaver County and arriving in Minersville, ending at its intersection with SR-21.
The southernmost sections of SR-130, from the southern terminus at I-15 to 4800 North in Enoch, are part of the National Highway System.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://data-uplan.opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/utah-national-highway-system|title=Utah National Highway System|publisher=UDOT Data Portal|access-date=January 22, 2019}}</ref>
==History== State Route 130 was originally established in 1933 as the Minersville Loop on SR-21.<ref name="resolutions"/><ref name="130 resolution 1933">{{cite UTSR law|year=1933|chapter=30|quote=From junction with route 21, .4-mile southerly to Minersville, thence northerly 1.5 miles to junction with route 21.}}</ref> In 1953, one of the legs of the loop was deleted, turning the highway into a short {{convert|0.4|mi|km}} spur connecting SR-21 to the center of Minersville.<ref name="resolutions"/><ref name="130 resolution 1953">{{cite UTSR law|year=1953|quote=Route 130. From route 21, 0.4 Mile southerly to Minersville.}}</ref> In 1965, this short spur was significantly extended south, now passing through Minersville, and continuing all the way down through Enoch to U.S. Route 91 just north of Cedar City,<ref name="resolutions"/> bringing its total length to about {{convert|37|mi|km}}.<ref name="reference"/> With the construction of Interstate 15 in the area, the route was extended southward again in 1967. This extension took it south through Cedar City on the former alignment of State Route 1 (US-91) along Main Street to the south Cedar City interchange, a distance of about {{convert|6|mi|km}}, while State Route 1 was realigned to the west to coincide with Interstate 15.<ref name="resolutions"/>
