List of South Dakota Numbered Highways

List Of South Dakota Numbered Highways

South Dakota's state highways were assigned in a numbering pattern that followed that of the U.S. Highways followed upon their inception. East-west highways carried even numbers and increased from north to south – while north-south highways carried odd numbers and increased from east to west. This holds true only for 2-digit highways. 3-digit highways follow the odd-even routing, but do not sequentially remain near a "parent" route as a spur or alternate route, instead being more independent of any parent 2d route.

The Bureau of Indian Affairs maintains a set of routes within the reservations of western South Dakota – using the standard BIA shield on green background.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, south and/or highways:

    The advice of their elders to young men is very apt to be as unreal as a list of the hundred best books.
    Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. (1841–1935)

    Hey, you dress up our town very nicely. You don’t look out the Chamber of Commerce is going to list you in their publicity with the local attractions.
    Robert M. Fresco, and Jack Arnold. Dr. Matt Hastings (John Agar)

    Up from the South at break of day,
    Bringing to Winchester fresh dismay,
    The affrighted air with a shudder bore,
    Like a herald in haste, to the chieftain’s door,
    The terrible grumble, and rumble, and roar,
    Telling the battle was on once more,
    And Sheridan twenty miles away.
    Thomas Buchanan Read (1822–1872)

    That is the land of lost content
    I see it shining plain,
    The happy highways where I went
    And cannot come again.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
