Cornhusker Hwy, Lincoln

Cornhusker Highway is the main passway through the city of Lincoln. This old highway, has been converted to a main lifeline that connects the old highway, with the major city. This highway is the first exit you find when you jump off I-80, from either direction. It was, at one time, the major highway that connected Lincoln with the other major cities in the state.

When you jump on the east end of Cornhusker, you will find busy industry. There are several major industrial plants, a large church, and numerous storage and industrial work spaces. As you proceed further into town, you find a jump off for a couple of small towns that Lincoln has grown around. As you get closer to the hub of downtown and the college, you see more familiar commercial properties. There are gas stations, restaurants and a few retail businesses.

Once you have passed the overpass that heads to the college campus, you will notice that the street becomes less populated with businesses, and becomes more sporadic. There is a huge nightclub, a couple of gas stations and a few turn offs to more industrial sites.

Eventually the road curves around and connects with the interstate. On the other side of the interstate, is the once bustling airport area. While a lot of the airport traffic has been diverted to Omaha, several businesses use the strip. There are hotels and restaurants also located here.
