The end of US 269


October 21, 2007. Photo’s color composition has been altered slightly.

US Highway 269 never existed except for many years, perhaps a decade, on one sign in Kansas City — southbound I-35 at Exit 11. An initial glance might make one think that a “child” route is near to intersecting its parent. In reality, this is MO 269, and this is just a signage error.

The sign will be gone soon. The incredibly short intracity route is going to be turned over to Kansas City so the city can make it a four-lane parkway.
