}}K-66 is a {{convert|5+1/2|mi|km|adj=mid|-long|spell=in}} state highway in the southeastern corner of the state. Its eastern terminus is on the Missouri state line near Galena (where it continues as Route 66), while its western terminus is at Alternate U.S. Highway 69 and U.S. Route 400 at Riverton. This road is noteworthy in the fact that it used to be part of the famed U.S. Route 66. After 1961, the nearby Interstate 44 offered a more direct route between Missouri and Oklahoma. In 1985, US 66 was decommissioned nationally. Kansas replaced the US-66 designation with K-66 on that portion of historic highway not numbered as U.S. Route 69 Alternate.[1]

History

The easternmost section of K-66 was not US-66 until 1979. Prior to 1979, US-66 came in from Missouri as Front Street and turned south on Main Street before joining K-66. US-66 then followed K-66 to Riverton, where K-66 ends. Original US-66 through Kansas continues as a county road to the north and west of U.S. Route 69 Alternate to Baxter Springs, and joins US-69 Alternate to the Oklahoma state line. The {{convert|13|mi|km}} of US-66 in Kansas retain much of the character of the Mother Road.

Thus the final (1985) alignment of US-66 perfectly matches present US-69 Alt. and K-66. US-69 Alt. was formed in 1985 when US-66 was decommissioned.[2]
