Route description
Nebraska Highway 137 begins in Newport at an intersection with US 20. It heads northward, passing through numerous unincorporated areas of farmland along the way. It meets NE 12 east of Burton, and runs concurrently with it to the northeast for about 4.5 miles (7.2 km). NE 137 then splits off to the north, where it passes through the Jamison unincorporated area. It then continues northward to the South Dakota border, where it continues in that state as SD 47.[1][3]
