U.S. Route 83 (US 83) is a part of the U.S. Highway System that travels from the Mexico–United States border in Brownsville, Texas, to the Canada–United States border near Westhope, North Dakota. In the state of North Dakota, US 83 extends from the South Dakota border north to the Canada-United States border.




Route description


US 83 enters North Dakota at the South Dakota state line, near the town of Hague, and runs northward for approximately 68 miles (109 km), serving the small cities of Strasburg and Linton before reaching Interstate 94 (I-94). It follows I-94 west to Bismarck, where it resumes a generally northward course as a four-lane highway.
Headed toward Minot US 83 traverses mostly agricultural land, passing through some small cities such as Wilton, Washburn and Underwood north to Max. Leaving Underwood, US 83 encounters a large strip-mining coal (lignite) operation which can not only be seen from the roadway in the vicinity of Falkirk, but a small viaduct carries coal over the highway. North of Coleharbor, US 83 briefly merges both roadways and shares land with an adjacent railroad line in order to cross a viaduct that separates Lake Sakakawea from Lake Audubon. North of the lakes, the surroundings return to cropland and grazing land, though a wind farm is located south of Minot.
US 83 passes directly through Minot, where it is known as Broadway, although the Minot Bypass to the west is an alternate route. The northbound route passes the airport and continues to Minot Air Force Base, where it returns to a two-lane highway, and shares a roadway with eastbound North Dakota Highway 5 (ND 5) about thirty miles (50 km) north of the base for about ten miles (16 km). The highway then diverges from ND 5 to head north to the border with Canada at the 49th parallel, and enters southwestern Manitoba as Provincial Trunk Highway 83.
