It runs for {{convert|10.69|mi|km}} from the junction with SR-10 three miles (5 km) south of Castle Dale to the Wilberg Coal Mine, northwest of Orangeville.
==Route description== SR-57 begins at the junction with SR-10 near the Hunter Power Plant, three miles (5 km) southwest of Castle Dale, and runs almost straight north for almost four miles (6 km) until it nears Orangeville. It then bypasses Orangeville heading northwest. At the junction of SR-10 it turns north again and then moves in a north-northwest direction until it reaches its terminus at the southern edge of the Wilberg Mine, about {{convert|10|mi|km}} northwest of Orangeville (the Wilberg Mine is the location of the fire that took twenty seven lives in 1984).
==History== The road from SR-29 at Orangeville Junction south through Orangeville (along Main Street) to SR-10 was added to the state highway system in 1927 as a spur of SR-29,<ref>{{cite UTSR law|year=1927|quote=29. From Ephraim easterly via Orangeville Junction to Castle Dale and from Orangeville Junction southerly via Orangeville to a connection with the Price-Salina Highway.}}</ref> and in 1931 it was split off as SR-57.<ref>{{cite UTSR law|year=1931|quote=(57) From Orangeville junction on route 29, southerly via Orangeville to a junction with route 10.}}</ref> In 1978, the Utah Transportation Commission adopted a realignment onto a bypass of Orangeville, with a new northern terminus on SR-29 at the county road to the Wilberg Mine. An interchange was built at the new SR-29 junction in 1978,<ref>Federal Highway Administration, National Bridge Inventory database, 2006</ref> and said county road became an extension of SR-57 in 1982.<ref name=resolutions-57>Utah Department of Transportation, [http://www.udot.utah.gov/main/f?p=100:pg:5285268476414239680:::1:T,V:1348, Highway Resolutions] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080930165159/http://www.udot.utah.gov/main/f?p=100:pg:5285268476414239680:::1:T,V:1348, |date=September 30, 2008 }}: {{cite web |url= http://www.udot.utah.gov/main/uconowner.gf?n=200609140957001 |title= Route 57 }} {{small|(2.20 MB)}}, updated November 2007, accessed May 2008</ref>
