Proposed I 80 Route in Cheyenne County Cheyenne
The Bureau of Public Roads and Nebraska Highway Department plan an Interstate 80 route through Cheyenne County with public hearing in Sidney on December 10 at 9 30 a m at the Elks Auditorium. The route would run south of U S 30 across the county, with two interchanges at Sidney and a connection to U S 30 and U S 385. State Engineer John Hossack supports the plan, which could be completed by the late 1960s or early 1970s if federal funds are available.
