State Route 235 (SR-235), also known as Washington Boulevard, is a state highway in the U.S. state of Utah. Spanning 3.2 miles (5.1 km), it serves as a north/south minor arterial road through Weber County, connecting US-89 in Ogden to SR-134 in North Ogden.
State Route 235 begins at the intersection of Washington Boulevard (US-89) and 2nd Street in Ogden. At this point, US-89 turns from its north-south routing along Washington Boulevard to the northwest along Harrisville Road while Washington continues north and becomes SR-235. Shortly after this transition, the route passes a one-way pair on the east (SR-286) servicing the Ogden–Weber Applied Technology College. The route continues north, exiting Ogden and entering the city of North Ogden passing a number of shopping centers and suburban neighborhoods. At 2550 North, the route passes the former westbound routing of SR-235 before ending shortly after at 2600 North (SR-134).
Washington Boulevard from Ogden through North Ogden was originally designated as part of SR-1 in 1910. This route originally continued north along Washington Boulevard before turning northwest through Pleasant View along what is now Pleasant View Drive, meeting with SR-204 near the Utah Hot Springs at the Weber County-Box Elder County border. In 1945, Route 1 was realigned to follow the diagonal stretch of SR-204 along what is now US-89, truncating SR-204 in the process, and at the same time, SR-235 was created along the former routing of SR-1 through Pleasant View.
