List of state highway loops in Texas (200–299)

Loop 201 was designated on September 23, 1959, as a redesignation of Spur 201 when it was extended northeast to SH 146 at McKinney Road.

It proceeds east along Murray Avenue before turning south to follow Lexington Street through the center of Manor.

Loop 212 turns east at Parsons Street at an intersection with FM 973, and the two routes run concurrently.

On August 4, 1966, Loop 213 was cancelled and removed from the highway system when US 90 was rerouted.

Loop 217 was designated on August 1, 1947, from US 377/SH 183 west of Fort Worth southeast to US 81 near the south city limits.

Loop 219 was designated on June 1, 1948, from US 175 north of Crandall south to then-US 175, then east to new US 175.

Loop 227 was designated on May 4, 1984, from SH 146 at Hardin Drive and Main Street south and southwest to US 90.

On March 2, 1967, Loop 249 was cancelled and removed from the highway system due to completion of US 83/Spur 206.

Loop 254 was designated on August 28, 1991, on the current route as part of the cancellation of US 80 west of Dallas.

Loop 254 intersects Farm to Market Road 101 near the town square, then turns to a more eastward direction near Clay Street.

The highway travels past Vietnam Veterans Memorial Park and Ranger High School before ending at a modified trumpet interchange with I-20.

The southeast side of the loop, from its intersections with US 287/SH 19 to US 79/US 84, is the only part that is heavily commercially developed.

During the 1970s, 1980s, and the early 1990s the loop was expanded to finally form a complete circle around the core of the city.

Loop 260 was designated on August 20, 1952, from US 80 in western Oak Cliff Addition to US 80 at or near the Dallas County Courthouse as a replacement of what was left of SH 1.

Loop 260 was cancelled on June 25, 1991, by district request and returned to the city of Dallas.

Three months later Loop 264 was cancelled and replaced by extensions of SH 80 and FM 1144, although it remained signed as US 181 Business.

SH 288 and runs to the west of that route, providing an overpass of the Union Pacific Railroad crossing near the junction.

Although Loop 275 was not officially designated until March 24, 1954, it was created on September 26, 1939, when US 81 (now I-35) was rerouted east onto its current alignment.

On July 11, 1986, and February 24, 2000, at district request, the sections from US 183 to Williamson Creek were removed and returned to the city of Austin, creating the current gap in the route.

A previous route numbered Loop 281 was designated in Wichita County on December 3, 1954, from then-US 82/US 287 southeast of Wichita Falls northwest alongside the Missouri–Kansas–Texas Railroad and Fort Worth and Denver Railway rail lines to then-US 281 on the city's north side.

Loop 284 was cancelled on February 5, 1960, and removed from the highway system after the city of Center deferred construction.

The original Loop 285 was designated on September 30, 1955, from US 287 in western Quanah north to Spur 133.

On March 29, 1957, the road was extended south, west and north back to FM 79 near the origin, completing the loop around Paris.

On the north side of town, the loop runs next to the C. H. Collins Athletic Complex.

Despite its name, Loop 288 does not make a complete circuit, running instead around the north, east and southeast sides of the city.

[66] In recent years, several large retail stores have been built on or near the southeast portion of the loop, and this, coupled with ongoing road expansion projects, has resulted in extreme traffic congestion.

Loop 288 is signed as a truck route for traffic traveling east on US 380 towards McKinney.

The highway serves as the southern end for Interstate 27 on the south side of the city.

On January 1, 1969, the road was extended east 2.74 miles (4.41 km) along the old route of US 290 to I-10, but this did not take effect until this section of I-10 was open to traffic.

On July 17, 1987, Loop 294 was cancelled by district request and redesignated as a section of US 90 Alt.
