(KLZA)-- The City of Auburn is asking the Nebraska Department of Roads for uniformity. They want Highway 136 West of U.S. Highway 75 to include a turn lane.

Since the highway was rebuilt in 2014, there is a wide shoulder on 136 west of the Highway 75 intersection. The wide shoulder is used by some as another driving lane, and there has been confusion among drivers as well as law enforcement.

The Council simply wants this portion of U.S. 136 to match up with the rest of the highways in town. The Council is requesting a middle turn-lane be placed on U.S. 136 from the Highway 75 intersection and going west. There is already a middle turn lane in Auburn on U.S. 75 and U.S. 136 east of the intersection with Highway 75.
