Route description

K-152 begins at an intersection with K-7 south of Cadmus and begins traveling east. It passes an intersection with Kettle Road then Lamb Road and after roughly 2.5 miles (4.0 km) reaches an intersection with Long Road. At this point it curves northward for 1 mile (1.6 km) then curves back eastward. From here it continues eastward another roughly 4.5 miles (7.2 km) and then crosses the Marais des Cygnes River. After crossing the river it enters La Cygne and travels roughly 1.5 miles (2.4 km) through the city. Roughly .5 miles (0.80 km) after exiting the city it crosses Middle Creek, a tributary of Marais des Cygnes River. From here it continues another roughly 2 miles (3.2 km) and makes a series of 3 curves. From the curves K-152 continues east for a short distance before reaching its eastern terminus at US-69.[3]

From the western terminus, the first 8 miles (13 km) is paved with partial design bituminous pavement and the remainder is paved with composite pavement.[6][7] K-152 is not included in the National Highway System.[8] The National Highway System is a system of highways important to the nation's defense, economy, and mobility. K-152 does connect to the National Highway System at its eastern terminus at US-69.[9] 2017 Annual average daily traffic (AADT) on K-152 ranged from 675 near the western terminus to 2780 slightly east of La Cynge. Other AADT was 2000 west of La Cynge and 2310 by the eastern terminus.[10]

History

K-152 was first designated by KDOT in 1927 as K-35, and at that time ran from K-7 eastward to US-73E.[2] US-73E was redesignated as US-69 sometime between 1933 and 1936.[11][12] Then on January 7, 1937 K-35 was realigned further south to end further south on K-7.[13] In a June 13, 1938 resolution K-35 was realigned at the crossing of the Marais Des Cygnes River, by La Cygne, to eliminate 3 unsafe sharp curves.[14] Then on October 15, 1957 K-35 was renumbered to K-135 to avoid confusion with the newly constructed Interstate 35 (I-35).[4] In a September 13, 1976 I-35W was renumbered to I-135. Then in order to avoid confusion with I-135, K-135 was renumbered to K-152.[5]

gollark: Basically, if I want to run a search it just goes `SELECT * FROM page_tokens WHERE token = 'one token in search query'` or something like that, and it now has a list of pages with the right token, and SQLite can execute this query relatively fast.
gollark: I mean, as far as I can tell there isn't really a faster *and* more storage-efficient way to do search than the inverted-index page_tokens thing.
gollark: ```sqlCREATE TABLE crawl_queue ( id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, url TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE, lockTime INTEGER, added INTEGER NOT NULL, referrer TEXT);CREATE TABLE pages ( id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, url TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE, rawContent BLOB NOT NULL, rawFormat TEXT NOT NULL, textContent TEXT NOT NULL, updated INTEGER NOT NULL);CREATE TABLE page_tokens ( id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, page INTEGER NOT NULL REFERENCES pages(id), token TEXT NOT NULL, weight REAL NOT NULL);CREATE TABLE links ( id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, toURL TEXT NOT NULL, fromURL TEXT NOT NULL, lastSeen INTEGER NOT NULL, UNIQUE (toURL, fromURL))```Here is the database.
gollark: To be fair, the text content field isn't that necessary, as for search it uses the page_tokens table anyway and it can be rebuilt from the HTML if I need it.
gollark: The frequency of every word *must* be stored for quick (O(log n) time or something) search, the raw HTML or at least might be needed if I come up with a better way to weight frequency or something, the links are useful for (future) better search ranking algorithms.
