U.S. Route 81 - Route Description - North Dakota

North Dakota

U.S. 81 enters North Dakota concurrently with Interstate 29. It is paired with I-29 from the South Dakota border, passing through Fargo, to the north side of Grand Forks. There it splits off to the northwest, passing through the city of Manvel. It parallels I-29, passing through the town of Grafton before joining North Dakota Highway 5 near Cavalier. It rejoins I-29 and continues to the US/Canada border at Pembina. The original route of US 81 survives as ND State Route 127 and 'County Road 81' in Richland, Cass, Traill, and Grand Forks counties.

Famous quotes containing the word north:

    We might hypothetically possess ourselves of every technological resource on the North American continent, but as long as our language is inadequate, our vision remains formless, our thinking and feeling are still running in the old cycles, our process may be “revolutionary” but not transformative.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
