The Kansas state highway system includes and has included many state highway spurs that connect through highways with places that are not along a through highway. The Kansas Department of Transportation and its predecessor agencies have established most of these highways to serve small cities. In most cases, the spur highway connecting a through route with a city ends at the city limit of the city. The spur highways also serve unincorporated villages, state institutions like psychiatric hospitals, state parks and other Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism–administered facilities, and historic sites.
