NE: US 75/US 136 Truck in Auburn
« on: October 07, 2022, 07:00:33 pm »
Since jayhawkCO brought up the truck routes in Beatrice recently, I remembered about another weird truck route in that part of the state. In Auburn, there's a route signed "Truck US 75" heading north and west and "Truck US 136" heading east and south.

South end, at US 136 and E

North end, at US 75 and 9th

Other view of north end

Since it's signed differently both ways, I would put it in as the same route for both, following 9th and E.

That's not a truck route of anything. It's just a connection that's signed as a truck path TO each route.

The other SE Nebraska truck routes reminded me of these... any more thoughts?

IAWTP. It's a truck route to, not a truck route for something.
For unofficial truck routes, the guidance from the CHM days was, "Does it also make sense as an ALT route?"

Fair enough, just cleaning up old topics I've started.

NE: US 75/136 truck route (Auburn, NE)

There's a very short truck route that I happened to notice on a drive in this area the other day. This route follows 9th street to E street in Auburn. It's signed as US 136 truck from US 75, and vice versa from US 136.

So I should've looked prior to making this thread but this has been brought up already. This can be locked.
