The Nebraska Department of Roads is planning a big upgrade to the U.S. 77 West Bypass that would bring a nearly 5-mile stretch up to freeway standards.
Florida Highway Patrol says a 64-year-old man from Jacksonville was walking across Park Avenue just south of the West Beltway around 10:30 pm Sunday when he was hit by a pickup truck.
Years of study, design, possible legal disputes and especially government red tape likely would face of a roughly 30-mile-long, four-lane highway loop to serve new and future Lincoln County industries.
