[edit] Route summary
I-135 begins from the south at Exit 42 on the Kansas Turnpike. (The exit is signed as I-135, I-235, U.S. 81/Wichita/Salina.) Less than a mile from the Kansas Turnpike tollbooth, I-235, a loop around the western side of Wichita, branches off the highway. I-135 continues northward from there, running just east of the Wichita downtown area. It reunites with I-235 at Milepost 11 at the loop's other end.
I-135 leaves Wichita and continues northward to Newton where it turns northwest at around milemarker 33. The freeway continues in this direction for twenty miles, finally returning to a due north course at McPherson. The route finally comes to an end north of Salina, at its intersection at I-70.
The I-135 roadbed continues northward to the Nebraska border along the same route, designated as U.S. 81, which is duplexed with I-135 for the interstate's entire length.
