Texas State Highway Spur 247

Spur 247 begins in Pyote at Spur 57, the former route of US 80 in the region. It travels northward along Pyote Street, crossing RM 2355 before leaving the town. It then curves to the northeast to reach its northern terminus at SH 115.[1][2]

In 2011, the AADT was reported as 80 between Spur 57 and RM 2355 and 140 at the Pyote town limit.[3]

A previous route numbered Spur 247 was designated in San Antonio, Bexar County on November 19, 1951 from then-US 81 via South Alamo Street, Probandt Street, and Steves Avenue to then-US 181 on South Presa Street. This route was cancelled on March 18, 1960 as a majority of it was concurrent with US 87 and other routes.[1]

Later that year, the current Spur 247 was designated on July 25, 1960 over the former route of SH 115 through Pyote, which was rerouted to the east to eventually connect with the newly constructed I-20. The original southern terminus of Spur 247 was intended to be I-20; however, the terminus would later be redescribed as US 80 (now Spur 57).[1]

The entire highway is in Ward County.
