Interstate 680 in Omaha Gets New Name: 'Hal Daub Freeway' from Mile Post 0 to Missouri River

Alright, let's cut to the chase on this one. We've got a bill that’s all about a name change for a stretch of highway. Specifically, it’s designating a portion of Interstate Route 680 in Omaha, Nebraska, as the “Hal Daub Freeway.”

What’s in a Name?

This bill is pretty straightforward, no hidden gotchas here. It dictates that the section of I-680 in Omaha, Nebraska, starting from mile post 0 and running all the way to the Missouri River, will officially be known as the “Hal Daub Freeway.” Think of it like giving a street a new name—same road, new sign.

Paperwork and Practicalities

The second part of this bill is all about making sure that name change sticks across the board. It states that any time this particular stretch of I-680 is mentioned in official United States laws, maps, regulations, documents, or any other records, it will now be referred to as the “Hal Daub Freeway.” So, if you're looking at an old map or a government document, those references will eventually be updated to reflect the new designation. For folks driving in Omaha, it means new signage will eventually go up, and your GPS might get an update down the line. It’s mostly an administrative cleanup to ensure consistency.
