Route description

Southern segment

The southern branch of Nebraska Highway 103 begins at an intersection with NE 8 south of Diller. It heads directly northward through farmland, passing through Diller along the way. At US 136 north of Diller, this segment of NE 103 terminates and resumes about 8 miles (13 km) to the north. [1] [3]

Northern segment

The northern segment of Nebraska Highway 103 begins at NE 4, east of Plymouth. It heads in a northerly direction through farmland, turning briefly to the northwest as it passes through De Witt. After leaving De Witt, NE 103 continues heading northward. In Wilber, it intersects with NE 41. The highway continues heading north and slightly to the northwest until it meets NE 33 in Crete. It runs concurrently with NE 33 for about 3.5 miles (5.6 km), passing through Crete. Just to the northeast of Crete, NE 103 splits off and continues northward. After passing through Pleasant Dale, it intersects with US 6. Less than a mile later, NE 103 intersects with I-80 where it then terminates. [1] [4]

History

Southern segment

The southern segment of N-103 largely follows today's alignment. However, according to the 1937 state highway map, its southern terminus was Diller. [5] Between 1937 and 1940, N-103 was extended further south and terminated at N-3S [6] (the current terminus), or present day N-8.

Northern segment

The northern segment was first numbered N-82 as early as 1937. [5] The renumbering of N-82 to N-103 occurred somewhere between 1962 and 1981. Also during this timeframe, N-103 was rerouted to the west and extended north through Crete, Pleasant Dale and terminated at a newly constructed interchange with I-80. Originally gravel before and around 1981, [7] [8] the section between Crete and Pleasant Dale has since been paved.

Texas Recreational Road 11 Highway in Texas

Recreational Road 11 (RE 11) is a Recreational Road located in Concho County, in the western portion of the U.S. state of Texas. The highway is approximately 4.3 miles (6.9 km) in length, and connects a recreational area on the O.H. Ivie Reservoir to Farm to Market Road 1929 (FM 1929). The roadway travels through mainly rural areas along the coast of the lake. Segments of road first appeared in the location of RE 11 around 1940. Portions of the highway were designated as part of Ranch to Market Road 2134 (RM 2134) in 1953, but was removed as part of that highway due to the construction of the O.H. Ivie Reservoir. RE 11 was designated in December 1996.

Park Road 1 is a Park Road located in Bastrop and Buescher state parks, in the central region of the U.S. state of Texas. The highway is approximately 33.6 miles (54.1 km) long, and passes through mainly rural park land. PR 1 also includes most main roads in the two parks. Because of this, the highway has been divided into five different routes; they are PR 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, and 1E. PR 1C makes up most of the route, while three of the segments are less than a mile long. The route was first drafted by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in 1933, as a scenic drive between the two parks. It was designated in 1937 as one of the state's originally designated Park Roads and has been extended and altered multiple times since.
