North Dakota Highway 57

North Dakota Highway 57 (ND 57) is an east–west highway in North Dakota, running in Benson and Ramsey counties. It runs from U.S. Route 281 (US 281) west of Fort Totten to North Dakota Highway 20 near Camp Grafton.

Because of its proximity to Devils Lake, it has been impacted with the lake's increasing elevation; portions in and along the lake have had to be raised at least once to get the road elevation above the lake level. Despite this, the route remains vulnerable to flooding.

Famous quotes containing the word north:

    We have heard all of our lives how, after the Civil War was over, the South went back to straighten itself out and make a living again. It was for many years a voiceless part of the government. The balance of power moved away from it—to the north and the east. The problems of the north and the east became the big problem of the country and nobody paid much attention to the economic unbalance the South had left as its only choice.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
