Roads and landmarks around Merriam in Johnson County
Merriam is built along I-35. The city straddles the interstate from just south-west of the I-635 junction down to 75th Street, and on that stretch I-35 also carries US-69, with US-56 and US-169 joining it from the south. Those three split off east onto Shawnee Mission Parkway, the road that nearly halves the city. I-635 starts at I-35 here, and its first exit is Merriam Drive, once Southwest Boulevard. Turkey Creek follows the interstate through town, so a car or trailer that leaves the road can finish up down the creek bank. Johnson Drive meets I-35 at the IKEA store. The city takes its name from an officer of the Kansas City, Fort Scott and Gulf railroad, which ran through it, and Seaboard Corporation has its headquarters here.
On I-35, give your direction and the last cross road you passed: 75th Street, Shawnee Mission Parkway, Johnson Drive or the I-635 split. In the IKEA lot, say which side of the building you are on and the row. A Shawnee Mission address can be several cities, so say Merriam.

Tractor-trailer recovery where I-635 leaves I-35 in Merriam
In Merriam, I-35 carries a lot on one road. US-56, US-69 and US-169 ride it into town and turn east onto Shawnee Mission Parkway, which nearly cuts the city in half, and just past the north end I-635 splits off at a stack interchange, with Merriam Drive, the old Southwest Boulevard, as its first exit. Turkey Creek runs beside the interstate the whole way, and Johnson Drive meets it at the IKEA store. A semi that stalls on the stack, runs out of room on the Merriam Drive ramp or ends up down the Turkey Creek bank is Titan Tow & Repair’s to handle, with heavy-duty towing on a heavy wrecker and a winch-out or full recovery rigged by WreckMaster-certified operators.
Passenger vehicles are handled the same, night or day. A car that spun off I-35 into the grass by Turkey Creek, or a pickup stuck in snow on a Merriam side street, gets a winch-out and a rollback flatbed if it cannot be driven. Tell dispatch your direction, the exit you last passed, such as Johnson Drive, 75th Street or Merriam Drive, and if the truck has a load on. Titan Tow & Repair works from one yard in Liberty, and a person answers around the clock.

Towing in Merriam: common questions
Can a heavy wrecker reach a semi on I-35 between the I-635 split and 75th Street in Merriam?
Yes, at any hour. Titan Tow & Repair sends a heavy wrecker with WreckMaster-certified operators from our Liberty yard straight down I-35. Through Merriam the interstate shares its lanes with US routes that join and leave at Shawnee Mission Parkway and at I-635, so give dispatch your direction, the last cross road and whether you stopped in a merge lane. Say if the trailer is loaded. If the unit has gone off the edge toward Turkey Creek, send a photo so the winch-out can be planned before we roll.
What happens if my car, packed with flat-pack furniture, won't start in the Merriam IKEA lot?
A flatbed takes the car, cargo and all. Titan Tow & Repair sends a rollback flatbed to the IKEA store at Johnson Drive and I-35, 24 hours a day. The car rides on the deck with its load inside, but tell dispatch if anything is tied to the roof or a trailer is hitched on. Say which side of the building you are parked on and the row. A dead battery may only need a jump start in the lot; if it still will not go, we take it to your mechanic, your home or our Liberty yard.
I'm stopped on Shawnee Mission Parkway near Antioch Road in Merriam. What should I tell dispatch?
Your direction first, then the nearest cross street. Titan Tow & Repair covers the parkway through Merriam at any hour, and the Johnson County Library's Antioch branch on the Antioch Road corner is an easy landmark to give. Say whether you are in a traffic lane, a turn lane or a parking lot, and keep your hazards on. A car or pickup goes on a rollback flatbed, and a jump start or a tire change may sort it where it sits.
