This historic monument lies 10 miles SE of Laramie
on Interstate 80 at the edge of a rest area. It stands at summit
near Sherman Hill, and marks the highest point on I-80. It is 48.5
feet tall. Interstate 80 follows the path of the first
transcontinental railroad line.
Completed in 1927, the Lincoln Highway,
the prototype transcontinental route designed for automobile
traffic, stimulated highway improvement. It later became federally
marked U.S. Highway 30. In the 1950-1960s Interstate 80 was built to
carry east-west traffic through Nebraska. Though I-80 parallels the
Lincoln Highway route in many counties, the older route continues as
a part of the federal highway network.
