In the U.S. state of Nebraska, the Nebraska Department of Roads maintains a system of state highways. Every significant section of roadway maintained by the state is assigned a number, officially State Highway No. X but is also referred to as Nebraska Highway X. Interstate Highways and U.S. Highways are included in the system, and are designated as such. There is no duplication of numbers between the systems. State Highways are signed with a trapezoid shape with an image of a covered wagon with two oxen at the bottom. There is a secondary system of Connecting Links, Spurs, and Recreation Roads. All three are numbered according to the alphabetical sequence of the county it is located in. Recreation Roads are designated by the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission; they are only maintained by the NDOR.
Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, nebraska and/or highways:
“I made a list of things I have
to remember and a list
of things I want to forget,
but I see they are the same list.”
—Linda Pastan (b. 1932)
“I am opposed to writing about the private lives of living authors and psychoanalyzing them while they are alive. Criticism is getting all mixed up with a combination of the Junior F.B.I.- men, discards from Freud and Jung and a sort of Columnist peep- hole and missing laundry list school.... Every young English professor sees gold in them dirty sheets now. Imagine what they can do with the soiled sheets of four legal beds by the same writer and you can see why their tongues are slavering.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
“What should concern Massachusetts is not the Nebraska Bill, nor the Fugitive Slave Bill, but her own slaveholding and servility. Let the State dissolve her union with the slaveholder.... Let each inhabitant of the State dissolve his union with her, as long as she delays to do her duty.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“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)
