K-177 is a state highway in central Kansas. It runs from US-54 near El Dorado to Manhattan, passing through the Flint Hills. It is part of the Flint Hills Scenic Byway and the Prairie Parkway.
Kansasi/ˈkænzəs/ is a U.S. state located in the Midwestern United States. It is named after the Kansa Native American tribe, which inhabited the area. The tribe's name (natively kką:ze) is often said to mean "people of the wind" or "people of the south wind", although this was probably not the term's original meaning. Residents of Kansas are called "Kansans". For thousands of years, what is now Kansas was home to numerous and diverse Native American tribes. Tribes in the eastern part of the state generally lived in villages along the river valleys. Tribes in the western part of the state were semi-nomadic and hunted large herds of bison. Kansas was first settled by European Americans in the 1830s, but the pace of settlement accelerated in the 1850s, in the midst of political wars over the slavery issue.
When it was officially opened to settlement by the U.S. government in 1854, abolitionist Free-Staters from New England and pro-slavery settlers from neighboring Missouri rushed to the territory to determine whether Kansas would become a free state or a slave state. Thus, the area was a hotbed of violence and chaos in its early days as these forces collided, and was known as Bleeding Kansas. The abolitionists eventually prevailed, and on January 29, 1861, Kansas entered the Union as a free state. After the Civil War, the population of Kansas grew rapidly when waves of immigrants turned the prairie into farmland. Today, Kansas is one of the most productive agricultural states, producing high yields of wheat, corn, sorghum, and soybeans. Kansas is the 15th most extensive and the 34th most populous of the 50 United States.
Kansas is an American rock band that became popular in the 1970s initially on album-oriented rock charts and later with hit singles such as "Carry On Wayward Son" and "Dust in the Wind". The band has produced eight gold albums, three sextuple-platinum albums (Leftoverture, Point of Know Return, The Best of Kansas), one platinum live album (Two for the Show) and a million-selling single, "Dust in the Wind". Kansas appeared on the Billboard charts for over 200 weeks throughout the 1970s and 1980s and played to sold-out arenas and stadiums throughout North America, Europe and Japan. "Carry On Wayward Son" was the second-most-played track on classic rock radio in 1995 and No. 1 in 1997.
History
1970–73: Early years
In 1969, Lynn Meredith, Don Montre, Dan Wright and Kerry Livgren (guitars, keyboards, synthesizers) were performing in a band called The Reasons Why in their hometown of Topeka, Kansas. After changing the band's name to Saratoga, they started playing Livgren's original material with Scott Kessler playing bass and Zeke Lowe on drums.
The Kansas Turnpike is one of the most important highways in eastern Kansas, as it connects the Kansas City metro area with the state capital of Topeka and the cities of Emporia and Wichita. The toll road turnpike was built in the 1950s and pre-dates the formation/construction of the Interstate Highway System.

The Kansas Turnpike was built in 1956 and was Kansas' first limited access highway. The median is very narrow so KTA (Kansas Turnpike Authority) added a concrete center barrier for the entire length of the turnpike throughout the state. Additionally, exits on the turnpike are few and far between. In the more rural sections, there are more than 50 km (30 mi) between exits. There are 6 oases (oasis/service areas) along the turnpike's median that have convenience stores, restaurants, fuel, and EV charging stations. Only toll roads along the Interstate Highway system can have rest areas with commercial businesses.

KTA is transitioning the turnpike to all electronic open-road tolling. This will mean the removal of tollbooths, toll plazas, and the paper ticket system that is used today. The transition is expected to be complete by 2024.

This video features the most realistic and updated sign graphics yet, I finally was able to have rounded edges on all the sign graphics as well as cutout state route and US highway shields.

K-177 is a state highway in central Kansas. It runs from US-54 near El Dorado to Manhattan, passing through the Flint Hills. It is part of the Flint Hills Scenic Byway and the Prairie Parkway.
Major highways across the state are beginning to reopen Monday after having closed over the weekend due to dangerous conditions from a massive winter storm, according to the KansasDepartment of Transportation.
Brunkow was initially interested in opening a locker in Paxico, but soon heard the locker in Alta Vista, about 30 miles southwest nestled near the intersection of Highway177 and Kansas 4, was for sale.
