History
![Old Texas 18](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d1/Old_Texas_18.svg)
The Texas State Highway System can trace its roots to the establishment of the Texas Highway Department on April 4, 1917. Administrative control of the department was given to a three-member commission appointed by the governor for two-year terms. On June 21, 1917, the commission conducted its first public hearing to solicit input on potential highway routes. The committee also divided the state into six divisions to be headquartered in

State Highways
A State Highway (SH) is funded and maintained by the state.
State Highways have been assigned numbers between 1 and 365 with a few exceptions. There is also a
State Highway 495 (renumbered from Farm to Market Road 495), as well as canceled routes
SH 550 (a temporary designation for what is now part of
I-169) and
SH 824 (a temporary designation for what was later part of
SH 24).
NASA Road 1 and
State Highway OSR are also in the State Highway network. The first 26 state highways were designated in 1917. Highways are not organized by directionality of the highway, instead they are generally numbered as they were when first built in the 1920s and 1930s. Most suffixed routes were eliminated by 1939, though

State Highway Loops and Spurs
State highway loops and spurs are short links in the State Highway network. They are generally numbered chronologically, and the lower numbers are older routes. Thus, spurs and loops are not related to similarly numbered main state highways.

Many loops are either bypasses around significant portions of populated areas or older bypassed state or national highways. One loop—around

s are assigned to many old alignments of Interstate Highways, U.S. Highways, State Highways and Farm to Market Roads that have been bypassed. In addition to the numerical designation, a unique lettered suffix is assigned to each business route along the highway—for instance, Business Interstate Highway 40-D and
Business Farm to Market Road 1960-A. (Not all routes start from A, and letters are sometimes skipped.) These letters are included on the sign in small print below the number. The sign specifications for business Interstate highways do not include the letter, but it has been added to many signs. Prior to 1991, business routes were assigned loop or spur numbers, but signed as business routes (with a
BUSINESS plate above the shield for the main route). In 1991, all the business routes were assigned official designations, and their former loop and spur numbers were eliminated.
