History

According to 1937 and 1940 state maps, the first N-8 designation began in Omaha on Military Road (which was rerouted at least once in the Omaha area, according to the 1955 state map). It then passed through Irvington and Elk City before terminating in Fremont. The original route designation largely disappeared from state maps by 1962. Most of the original route has since been turned over to local control. Route 3S was renumbered N-8 in about 1960.
