Exit And Entry System Reconsidered On I 80 Westbound Traffic
State Engineer Marvin Nuernberger says the Nebraska Department of Roads is reconsidering how traffic enters and exits I 80 as construction continues westward. Since December, both directions use the Big Springs interchange with some westbound US 30 traffic urged to exit at Brule. If frequent delays occur, all westbound traffic may leave I 80 at Brule and US 138 controls near Big Springs may be implemented.
