Page "Sterling Highway" Paragraph 3

Mileposts along the Sterling Highway do not begin with 0 ( zero ).

Instead, they begin with Mile 37 ( km 59 ), continuing the milepost numbering of the Seward Highway where the two highways intersect near Tern Lake.

The 0 ( zero ) mile marker for the Seward Highway is at its terminus in downtown Seward at the intersection of 3rd Avenue and Railway Avenue.

Thus, mileposts along the Sterling Highway reflect distance from Seward, which is not actually on the Sterling Highway.
