After much anticipation, the Lincoln South Beltway is open to Lincoln residents. Access to the beltway is now available from Highway 77, 68th St, and 120th St interchanges.
The beltway is an 11-mile, four-lane freeway in the southern part of the capital. Originally expected to be completed near the end of 2024, the $352-million project finished early thanks to good weather and beneficial financing. It is the largest project the Nebraska Department of Transportation has ever attempted.
