Roads and landmarks around Lansing in Leavenworth County

Lansing runs along the west bank of the Missouri River, which is also the state line, with Leavenworth directly to the north. The town grew up beside the state penitentiary. When the prison opened a coal mine, Lansing became a shipping point for the coal, though it was not incorporated as a city until 1959. The prison, now the Lansing Correctional Facility and the state's main maximum-security prison, is still the landmark everyone knows. US-73 and K-7 come north as one road past the western limits of Kansas City and straight through Lansing. K-5 is the second way in: it leaves I-435 and follows Wolcott Drive up toward Lansing, turns onto 8th Street in town, then becomes Muncie Drive in Leavenworth, keeping close to the river as the Frontier Military Scenic Byway.

Tell us whether you are on US-73 and K-7 or on K-5, and which street name K-5 had where you stopped: Wolcott Drive, 8th Street or Muncie Drive. Lansing and Leavenworth run into each other, so name the city as well. At the correctional facility, say which entrance you used.

Big rig towing and recovery on US-73, K-7 and K-5 through Lansing

Two highways bring heavy trucks into Lansing. US-73 and K-7 travel as a single road up the west edge of Kansas City, Kansas, then straight through town to Leavenworth, and that section is part of the National Highway System. The other way in is K-5, which leaves I-435, heads north on 97th Street, turns onto Hutton Road, follows Wolcott Drive and turns onto 8th Street. If a semi, bus, box truck or dump truck breaks down, slides off or tips over on either one, Titan Tow & Repair answers with heavy-duty towing from one of its heavy wreckers or the heavy-duty tow unit, and WreckMaster-certified operators set up the rigging for a winch-out, an upright or an accident recovery.

Smaller vehicles are covered as well. A car or pickup sitting in a ditch, sunk in mud or stuck in a snowbank anywhere around Lansing can be pulled back to the pavement, and it leaves on a rollback flatbed if it will not drive afterward. When you call, give the highway and which way you were headed, the closest cross street or landmark, and for a big rig whether it is loaded or empty. If you are at the Lansing Correctional Facility, name the gate or lot. Every truck is dispatched from the Liberty yard, day and night.

Towing in Lansing: common questions

Can a heavy wrecker get a loaded semi off US-73 between Kansas City and Lansing?

Yes, 24 hours a day. Titan Tow & Repair sends heavy wreckers and the mobile service truck to the stretch where US-73 and K-7 run together north past Kansas City's western limits and into Lansing, a section that belongs to the National Highway System. Give dispatch your direction, the nearest cross road or business, and whether the trailer is loaded. If a K-5 sign or a Lansing street sign is in view, read it to us. A tire or air fault can often be fixed where you stopped; anything worse goes on the wrecker.

My car won't start after a visit to the Lansing Correctional Facility. Can you help?

Yes. Titan Tow & Repair handles jump starts, lockouts and tire changes for cars and pickups at any hour, and a rollback flatbed takes a car that still will not go to the garage you choose. The correctional facility is a secured site, so tell dispatch which entrance you used, where on the grounds the car is parked, and whether facility staff need to clear a tow truck to come in. Give the make, model and year too; some newer cars should not be opened by force, and we will tell you so on the phone.

K-5 changes names around Lansing. Which street name should I give dispatch?

Give the one on the nearest sign, and add the city. Titan Tow & Repair covers all of K-5 here, but the highway goes by three street names: it comes up from I-435 on Wolcott Drive, runs through Lansing as 8th Street, and turns onto Muncie Drive in Leavenworth before ending at 4th Street, which carries US-73 and K-7. With the route number, the street name and your direction of travel, the driver comes straight to the right stretch instead of searching along the river.
