[edit] History
K-157 first appeared on the Kansas State Highway Map by 1953, but was less than a mile long.[2] When US 77 was placed on a new alignment to the east of Woodbine, what was K-157 was turned back to local authorities and the current alignment, then a local road, was paved and designated K-157.[3]
