North Dakota Highway 8 is a north–south highway in North Dakota. The highway is split into two segments. The northern segment is 78 miles (126 km) long and runs from SK 9 in Northgate to ND-23 near New Town. The southern segment is 133 miles (214 km) long and runs from Lake Sakakawea near Twin Buttes to SD-75 near Hettinger. Together, the segments are 211 miles (340 km) long. The highway was originally continuous but was separated by the creation of Lake Sakakawea in the 1950s.
Famous quotes containing the word north:
“The North has no interest in the particular Negro, but talks of justice for the whole. The South has not interest, and pretends none, in the mass of Negroes but is very much concerned about the individual.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
