K-148 is a state highway in the U.S. state of Kansas.

Route description

The route begins at K-28 north of Randall and east of Jewell and heads east through the unincorporated towns of Kackley and Norway. After crossing US-81, K-148 goes through the unincorporated town of Wayne and the incorporated town of Agenda. At the intersection of K-15 and K-9, K-148 begins a concurrency with K-9 that lasts 10 miles (16 km). Just east of Barnes, K-148 turns north, passing just to the east of Hanover before ending at the Nebraska state line. The road continues as Nebraska Highway 112.[2]

History

The western branch of the road was a county road. It first appeared on the Kansas state map in 1956.[3] The road between the K-9/K-15 intersection to the Nebraska line was marked as K-15E until sometime between 1987 and 1991.[3]
