K-129 was a 3.25adj=midNaNadj=mid state highway in the U.S. state of Kansas. K-129's southern terminus was at U.S. Route 24 (US-24) in the city of Beloit and the northern terminus was at US-24 and K-9 in Beloit. Within the city, the highway briefly overlapped K-14.
K-129 was first designated as a state highway on October 22, 1947, to a highway running from the north city limits of Beloit to K-9. On February 28, 1951, it was approved to realign US-24 further along K-9 and to the east of Beloit. Around this time K-129 was extended south to K-14, then along the former routing of US-24.

The highway then curved north becoming Brooklyn Avenue until reaching Elliot Street where it turned back west. It then intersected River Street, where it turned north and crossed a series of railroad tracks. After crossing the tracks, K-129 turned west onto East South Street then intersected K-14. At this point K-129 turned north and began to overlap K-14. The two routes continued north for 0.13miles and intersected at the western terminus of K-124 (East Main Street). K-129 and K-14 continued north for another 0.5miles before reaching East 8th Street, where K-14 turned west and K-129 continued north along North Hershey Avenue.
