Route description
editNebraska Highway 9 heads due north into farmland from its intersection with U.S. Highway 275 while US 275 turns northwest just north of West Point, Nebraska. After passing Nebraska Highway 51, it continues north and just before reaching Pender, meets and overlaps Nebraska Highway 16. NE 16 separates just north of Pender, and the highway proceeds through the Omaha Indian Reservation and the Winnebago Indian Reservation. It continues north through Emerson, meets Nebraska Highway 35, and turns west with NE 35.[1][2]
North of Wakefield, NE 9 turns north again and goes through Allen before meeting with U.S. Highway 20. It turns east for a mile with US 20, then turns north again. It goes north through Martinsburg, then turns east and northeast to end just south of Ponca.[1][2]
