Highway - Statutory



Where a prescriptive right for highway use has been acquired along section line, right extends to beaten path and such width as is reasonably necessary for public travel; it does not extend to statutory width unless that width has been established by the use. Olson v. Bonham, 212 Neb. 548, 324 N.W.2d 260 (1982).

Evidence did not establish that prescriptive right was acquired to statutory width of highway, which varied during prescriptive period from 66 to 40 feet. Olson v. Bonham, 212 Neb. 548, 324 N.W.2d 260 (1982).
