Route description
L-28B begins at an interchange with U.S. Route 275 (US 275) west of Omaha. The connections from US 275 eastbound to L-28B eastbound and from L-28B westbound to US 275 westbound make up the dominant road. Eastbound US 275 traffic must exit to stay on the route, while westbound L-28B traffic must exit to access eastbound US 275. Continuing east, L-28B meets 228th Street, which extends to Waterloo, at a diamond interchange. It crosses the Elkhorn River and then meets Skyline Drive, in Elkhorn, at a partial cloverleaf interchange. Now in Omaha, the road is named West Dodge Road. L-28B ends at an interchange with westbound U.S. Route 6 and Nebraska Highway 31. West Dodge Road continues towards Downtown Omaha as eastbound US 6. The entire route's speed limit was increased from {{convert|65|mph}} to {{cvt|70|mph}} in July 2018 {{Cite web|url=https://www.omaha.com/news/public-safety/roads/higher-speed-limit-on-omaha-interstate-system-takes-effect/article_73bacd7f-f92f-56fd-8c62-0ab482b30e53.html|title = Higher speed limit on Omaha Interstate system takes effect}}
