This task force aims primarily to encourage participation in creating or expanding articles about state highways in Kansas, also known as State Highways. This project also aims to establish standards relating to the display of information in these articles. This page and its subpages contain suggestions on formatting and layout of articles, which can be discussed at the project's talk page. To participate, simply add your name at the member section below.

Scope and goals

The following highways can have entire articles dedicated to them:

Routes that are constructed, traversable, state-maintained, and signed with their own route numbers.
Routes that are partly constructed or partly signed.
Deleted routes with significant information worthy of an article.
Interstates that run entirely in Kansas (mostly spur and loop routes). Ideally, these should also be part of this WikiProject.
Kansas-specific Interstate articles. For example: Interstate 70 in Kansas
Kansas-specific U.S. Highway articles. For example: U.S. Route 75 in Kansas

Resources

KDOT Pavement Management Information System, the closest thing to a routelog KDOT has. Input route number and click a county. Intersection mileages are indented and listed with the name of the intersecting roads. (Ignore 'RS ####' entries, these are Rural Secondary roads.) Mileposts are given to three decimal places and reset at county lines so addition will be needed to keep a running total.
KDOT Historic Maps, an index of state maps from 1932 to the present.
1927 State Map
1927 regional map
1927 Kansas City area
1930 State Map
1931 State Map
County maps historic
Highway Resolution documents
All-time list
1924 Auto trails

Structure

Please see WP:USRD/STDS for a complete description of the structure required.

Naming convention

Articles are located at K-x (Kansas highway); if not, they need to be moved there.

Category structure

All articles are placed into a category: either Category:State highways in Kansas, Category:U.S. Highways in Kansas, or Category:Interstate Highways in Kansas. The sort key is a three digit number representing the route number.

Recognized content

This is a list of recognized content, updated weekly by JL-Bot (talk · contribs) (typically on Saturdays). There is no need to edit the list yourself. If an article is missing from the list, make sure it is tagged or categorized (e.g. Category:Kansas road transport articles) correctly and wait for the next update. See WP:RECOG for configuration options.
