Highway in Kansas

Interstate 135 (I 135) is an approximately 95.7 mile (154 km) auxiliary Interstate Highway in central and south central Kansas, United States. I 135, which is signed as north–south, runs between I 35 and the Kansas Turnpike in Wichita north to I 70, U. S. Highway 40 (US 40), and US 81 in Salina. Except for the first 0.46 mile (1 km), I 135 overlaps US 81 its entire length. The route also runs through the cities of McPherson, Newton, and Park City. The highway was designated as Interstate 35W (I 35W) until September 1976, when it was renumbered as I 135 to conform to new AASHTO policies that eliminated most suffixed Interstate Highways. It is currently the longest three digit "spur", with an odd first digit, in the Interstate System.

I 135 begins from the south at exit 42 on the Kansas Turnpike. (The exit is signed as I 135/I 235/US 81 for Wichita and Salina.) US 81 joins I 135 0.5 mile (1 km) later at exit 1A (East 47th Street South) and remains concurrent with it for the rest of its length. Less than 1 mile (2 km) from the Kansas Turnpike tollbooth, I 235, a loop around the westside of Wichita, branches off the highway at exit 1C. I 135 continues northward from there, running just east of the Wichita downtown area. It reunites with I 235 at exits 11A and 11B at milepost 11 at the loop's other end. I 135 leaves Wichita and continues northward to Newton where it turns northwest around milemarker 33. The freeway continues in this direction for 20 mile (32 km), returning to a due north course at McPherson. The stretch of I 135 in Saline County from the Saline–McPherson county line to the highway's terminus at I 70, is designated as the Ben E. Vidricksen Highway, in honor of a state senator who was active in pushing for the highway's enlargement. The route ends on the northwest side of Salina, at its intersection at I 70. The road continues as US 81 north of this interchange.
