It is part of the Flint Hills Scenic Byway and the Prairie Parkway. ==Route description== From its beginnings east of El Dorado, K-177 heads northward to provide access to El Dorado Lake. It then approaches the Kansas Turnpike and runs parallel to it before having a junction with it (exit 92). It then passes through Matfield Green and Bazaar before reaching Cottonwood Falls, Strong City, and US-50. Flint Hills Scenic Byway is a portion of K-177 located in the Flint Hills region of the state, stretching from Interstate 35 at Cassoday in the south to US-56 at Council Grove in the north. Along the byway there are rolling hills and some of the only tallgrass prairie left in North America. It is a National Scenic Byway. North of Strong City, K-177 passes through the Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve. In Council Grove, it meets US-56.

From I-70 to US-24, K-177 is named the Coach Bill Snyder Highway, in honor of the long-time Kansas State University football coach.〔(Oct 2006 KDOT employee newsletter )〕 K-177 is two lanes from US-54 to I-70 and a four-lane expressway from I-70 to US-24. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「K-177 (Kansas highway)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
