State Highway 132, also known asSH-132, is astate highway in north-centralOklahoma. It connectsState Highway 51 west ofHennessey to theKansas state line nearManchester, and is 65.3 miles (105.1 km) long. It has no lettered spur routes.
SH-132 was originally added to the state highway system in 1956, when it ran betweenCarrier andU.S. Route 64 (US-64) east ofNash. It was extended further northward to the Kansas state line in 1958, and southward, to its current southern terminus, in 1962.
SH-132 begins at State Highway 51 in ruralKingfisher County three miles (4.8 km) east of the unincorporated community ofLacey. It heads north from there, passing through unincorporatedCato before crossing intoGarfield County. Approximately 4.5 miles (7.2 km) north of the county line, the highway cuts throughBarr. Five miles (8.0 km) north of Barr, the road skirts the east edge ofDrummond, where it crosses aGrainbelt Corporation railroad track.[3] The highway then meetsU.S. Highway 60/412 west ofEnid.[4]
SH-132 turns east andoverlaps the U.S. routes for one mile (1.6 km), before splitting back off to the north.[4] InCarrier, it briefly overlapsState Highway 45.[5] North of Carrier, the highway crosses another railroad track, this one operated byBurlington Northern Santa Fe, before running to the west ofHillsdale.[3] At the Garfield–Grant County line, the highway curves to the northwest before turning back to a due north heading in order to line up with Grant County's road grid.[4]
SH-132's first numbered highway junction in Grant County is withUS-64. SH-132 turns to the west, overlapping US-64 for two miles (3.2 km) before splitting off to the north inNash. North of Nash, the highway passes through two sharp curves before crossing over theSalt Fork of the Arkansas River, and through two more sharp curves after the crossing. SH-132 then passes one mile (1.6 km) to the west of unincorporatedHawley. Its final highway junction in Oklahoma is withState Highway 11. From here, the highway continues due north, passing west ofSand Creek,Wakita, andGibbon en route toManchester. After passing through Manchester, the highway turns west along the Oklahoma–Kansas state line. The road then curves back to the north, fully entering the state of Kansas, and becomesK-179.[4]
SH-132 was first designated on July 14, 1956. Initially, the highway began at what was then SH-38 (present-day SH-45) in Carrier, proceeding north along its present-day route to end at US-64 east of Nash. On May 8, 1958, the portion of the route concurrent with US-64 into Nash, and from Nash to the Kansas state line north of Manchester, was added.[1] The route did not appear on the official state highway map until the 1959 edition. At this time, portions of the route in Grant County, including from the Garfield–Grant county line to US-64 and a segment between Nash and Manchester, were unpaved.[6] By 1961, the segment of highway north of SH-11 had been paved.[7]
On July 2, 1962, SH-132 was extended to the south, reaching its present-day southern terminus. A minor realignment to the highway occurred in southern Grant County on January 7, 1963, the final change to SH-132's route.[1] By 1963, the portion of highway in Grant County south of US-64 was paved, leaving only a section extending from north of Nash to SH-11 as unpaved.[8] This section was paved by 1967.[9]
