[edit] Route description
[edit] Southern segment
The southern segment of Nebraska Highway 121 begins at an intersection with NE 32 west of Madison. It heads in a northward direction, passing through Battle Creek. Just north of Battle Creek, it intersects with US 275, where this segment terminates for about 15 miles.
[edit] Middle segment
The middle segment of Nebraska Highway 121 begins at NE 13 northwest of Pierce. It heads in a northward direction, where it will intersect with US 20 in Osmond. NE 121 runs concurrently with US 20 for about 3.5 miles to the east, before splitting and continuing northward. It then intersects NE 59 before entering Wausa to the north. The highway turns to the east and then northward again as it passes through Wausa. Further north, it will meet NE 84 and the segment will terminate at that point, resuming about 10 miles to the northeast.
[edit] Northern segment
The third segment of Nebraska Highway 121 begins at NE 12 in Crofton. It heads northward from Crofton, passing by the Lewis and Clark State Recreation Area. At that point, the highway turns to the northeast and finally directly eastward. It meets with US 81 south of the South Dakota border and just a couple of miles south of Yankton. NE 121 terminates at US 81.
