Summary
This segment of road, located in Omaha, is significant for its association with the military, road development, and westward expansion. It is part of the old Military Road that originally went from Omaha to Fort Kearny. As such, it was, after 1858, the primary route used by the military to transport supplies between the two points. The road also accommodated the movement of non-military supplies and civilian settlers. The road was first surveyed in 1856 and first came into use in 1858.
