SOME HISTORY OF NEBRASKA HIGHWAY 2
Nebraska highway 2 is a discontinuous highway. The highway runs from Nebraska City west to Lincoln where
it disappears into the city itself. 82 miles further west it reappears at Grand Island and continues west and
northwest to the South Dakota border north of Crawford. The second leg of the highway includes 272 miles of the
Sandhills Scenic Byway from Grand Island to Alliance. This leg of Nebraska Highway 2 has been deemed one of the most
beautiful drives in the United States.
