Post Rock Scenic Byway by Rodney Buxton
_
"Given the lack of trees in central Kansas, limestone became the natural resource of which buildings and fences were built by early pioneers. Examples of this pioneer spirit can be viewed while driving the Post Rock Scenic Byway, Kansas Highway 232." -Rodney
K-232 is a 17.263-mile-long north–south state highway in central Kansas connecting the towns of Wilson and Lucas. The highway was first established in 1962 and expanded over the following two years. K-232 is designated by the Kansas Department of Transportation as the Post Rock Scenic Byway. The scenic byway derives its name from the abundant limestone in the area which early settlers used as fence posts and in other construction in place of wood. The route was designated as a scenic byway both for the natural beauty of the area and unique towns located each end of the highway. Annual average daily traffic on the highway ranges from 238 to 340, and the entire route is paved with partial design bituminous pavement.
