The Great Northwestern Highway is a major highway route in Freedonia's northwest. Also known as the New New Snak City Highway, the highway connects Snaketown and Forrrest via New Snak City to Mainland Freedonia and other major highways. The highway was built by getplayerhead.sh?bloo_noodle&16.png bloo_noodle, and its related infrastructure are maintained by the Freedonia Road Co. It replaced the Old New Snak City Highway (Route N7).

On signs, the Great Northwestern Highway is abbreviated to its initials, GNWH.

Route Description

The highway begins at Nexus Loop Outer, southwest of EastCliff. It runs north, with connections to Shireford via Route W41. At the edge of Mainland Freedonia the route becomes a bridge after a junction with the N7. After a connection to New Snak City, the bridge continues roughly northwest, passing by Dunwich, until reaching Isle of Snak, Industry Island, and Snaketown.

A later extension allows walking further north, past Forrrest, to connect to Route 69.

Trivia

  • This is regarded as one of the most influential infrastructure projects in Freedonia - it made it possible to walk from Spawn to the northern islands around Forrrest, where many cities were being built. The massive bridge was also a huge undertaking.
  • This was the first major project of the FRC.
  • The GNWH is one of only a few routes in Freedonia not to have an official Freedonia Uniform Sign System number. This is because it was built before the formation of the Freedonia Road Co.
  • The GNWH is considered a Historical Route by the Freedonia Road Co, as shown by its brown shield.
  • The old alignment of the GNWH (now known as the N7) can be seen from the vast bridges of the new highway.
  • Thanks to various road builders and clear signage, it is possible to easily walk all the way from Spawn to Snaketown.
