Kentucky Route 135 (KY 135) is an 26.263-mile-long (42.266 km) state highway in Kentucky. It runs from U.S. Route 60 (US 60) in Burna to KY 91 in rural Crittenden County northwest of Marion via Carrsville and Tolu. Highway 135 is locally named Tolu-Carrsville Road.

A state highway, state road, or state route is usually a road that is either numbered or maintained by a sub-national state or province. A road numbered by a state or province falls below numbered national highways in the hierarchy. Roads maintained by a state or province include both nationally numbered highways and un-numbered state highways. Depending on the state, "state highway" may be used for one meaning and "state road" or "state route" for the other.

Kentucky State of the United States of America

Kentucky, officially the Commonwealth of Kentucky, is a state located in the east south-central region of the United States. Although styled as the "State of Kentucky" in the law creating it, (because in Kentucky's first constitution, the name state was used) Kentucky is one of four U.S. states constituted as a commonwealth. Originally a part of Virginia, in 1792 Kentucky became the 15th state to join the Union. Kentucky is the 37th most extensive and the 26th most populous of the 50 United States.

U.S. Route 60 (US 60) in the state of Kentucky parallels the Ohio River from Cairo, Illinois, to Louisville, and then takes a direct eastward route to rejoin the Ohio River in downtown Ashland, Kentucky as it joins US Route 23 southbound and continues as a multiplex to Catlettsburg where it turns east and exits the state and enters Kenova, West Virginia.
