Current through September 17, 2024
008.01 General - There are no requirements for the longitudinal location of either existing or new mailboxes under this rule and regulation. 1
Section 008 is the result of a detailed review and decision based on existing law, existing highway conditions, the Roadside Design Guide suggestions, the AASHTO Green Book, other States' provisions, costs, engineering judgment, mail delivery and pickup considerations, and operational performance information. It is the judgment of the drafters that based on a consideration of all current information, having no express longitudinal location provisions is in the overall best interest of the Department, the State of Nebraska, Nebraska citizens and the traveling public. Motorists must recognize and meet their duty to use reasonable care to protect themselves and others when in the vicinity of mailboxes including while mail is being delivered or picked-up along the State Highway System.
