Nebraska is a state lying on the Great Plains of the Midwestern part of the United States. Lincoln is the capital of the state and Omaha is the largest city.
In NE, a network of state highways is overseen by the Nebraska Department of Roads (NDOR). Each and every important segment of roads supervised by the state of NE is designated a number, formally State Highway No. X. However, this segment is also called Nebraska Highway X.
Both U.S. Highways and Interstate Highways comprise the network, and are assigned per se. If you closely follow a Nebraska Road Map, you will not find any repetition of numbers among the networks.
State Highways in Nebraska
State Highway signals in NE are similar to a trapezium with a picture of an enclosed farm cart with two oxen at the base. In addition, there is a secondary network of Spurs, Joining Links, and Diversion Roads. All of them are enumerated in line with the alphabetical series of the county they lie in. Diversion Roads or Recreation Roads are specified by the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission. The Nebraska Department of Roads has the overall responsibility of taking care of them.
