I listened to the Up To Date archives from KCUR and here's the traffic numbers a planner from the Kansas Department of Transportation gave for K-10
1970s:
Turnpike....12,000 cars per day
K-10.......... 6,000 cars per day
Present:
Turnpike..25,000 cars per day
K-10........26,000 cars per day
2020:
Turnpike......50,000 cars per day
K-10............50,000+ (70,000 cars per day near Olathe and Lenexa)
By comparison, he said I-35 on the Kansas side carries 100,000+ car per day.
K-10 and Turnpike traffic counts
