K-171 (Kansas highway)

K-171 is a state highway in the southeastern part of the U.S. state of Kansas. The 4.890-mile (7.870 km) highway mostly lies on the Crawford County/Cherokee County line except for the easternmost 0.4 miles (0.64 km) of the highway when it is entirely in Cherokee County. Its western terminus is at the intersection of U.S. Route 69 (US-69), US-160 and US-400 south of Pittsburg and its eastern terminus is a continuation as Missouri Route 171 at the Missouri state line near Opolis. K-171's current route was established on May 14, 2003, and the routing has not changed since.

Route description
K-171 begins at a four-way stop south of Pittsburg. The west arm of this intersection serves as US-400, the north arm carries US-69 and US-160, the south arm is US-69, US-160, and US-400, and the east arm forms the beginning of K-171. The entire length of K-171 is included in the National Highway System. The National Highway System is a system of highways important to the nation's defense, economy, and mobility. The first of the route is paved with composite pavement, while the remaining is paved with full design bituminous pavement. ==History==
History
In a May 14, 2003 resolution, it was approved to truncate K-57 to end at US-169 by Colony. At this time K-171 was established along the former section of K-57 between US-69 and the Missouri border. The highway's route has stayed the same since it was commissioned. ==Major intersections==
