• "11.977-mile-long (19.275 km)" overly precise, suggest nearest 1/100th.

• How do I use ref 1 to verify that value?
• "the state highway system when" link and isn't this normally capitalised?

Should it link to Kansas State Highway System?

No, my mistake, I was thinking of National Highway System. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 18:49, 29 August 2021 (UTC)

Ok, no problem -420Traveler (talk) 21:48, 29 August 2021 (UTC)

• "At times sections" I would add a comma after "times".

• "to pass through rolling hills. The highway passes" pass/passes repeat.

• "-117 is not included in the National Highway System.[6] The National Highway System is a system of highways important to the nation's defense, economy, and mobility. K-117 doesn't connect to the National Highway System either" this is clunky, repetitive and contains a contraction. Needs re-working. The middle sentence appears to be a footnote really, as well.

• "Nebraska southward" comma after Nebraska.

• "January 6, 1937 meeting," comma after 1937.

• Lots more of those.

• " a .5 miles (0.80 km) section" 0.5 mile (use adj=on in the convert template)

That's all I have on a quick first pass. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 15:26, 29 August 2021 (UTC)

I'll promote but can you add a note to ref 1 like I did on the 152 article which tells readers how to use the source please? Cheers. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 19:04, 2 September 2021 (UTC)

I will add the notes. Thanks for adding those notes in, I wasn't exactly sure how to do it properly. Thanks -420Traveler (talk) 19:43, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
