Will review this shortly. This will be my first GA review so it may take a second as I make sure I'm doing everything correctly.--

A quick Commons search didn't show anything so good to go here.

My notes
I'm gonna call this 1/2 and reread to see if I missed anything.
Lead
There are several instances where you use the same word to start a sentence back to back. K-55 is used back to back in the first and third paragraph. You also have a string of three "By ____" in the third paragraph of the lead. The same word probably shouldn't start the same sentence back-to-back, although I understand theres only a limited number of options.
"the highway" "the roadway" comes up several times back to back in the first paragraph. It would be great to have some sort of differentiation between the two. K-55 could replace the first instance of "the roadway" but the others might be harder.
Perhaps place the Udall map citation after the mention of the BNSF railroad track. You can cite it again at the end of the paragraph, but its easier to tell exactly where you determined it was BNSF.
"By 1931"..."By 1932": Once again, some differentiation would be good. I think "By 1932" could easily be moved to the back of the sentence to create the differentiation.
For the 1930 construction, did you ever get a date of final completion? I know you mention the completion of the Arkansas River bridge but not the Cowskin Creek one.
"By October 1941, SHC engineers and surveyors were planning the new route from Wichita to Winfield." Some clarification on which route would be great. I am assuming this is for K-15 but I can't really tell.
@
420Traveler: Overall it looks quite solid, the main issues I can see are quite minor. I'll read over it again tomorrow and see if I find anything else and if so I'll tell you. Let me know if you have any questions.--
