State Highway 144 (SH 144) is a 39.027-mile (62.808 km) state highway in Bosque, Somervell, and Hood counties in Texas, United States, that runs from Meridian to Granbury.[1]

Route description

SH 144 begins at an intersection with SH 22 in Meridian.[2] The route travels northwest to Walnut Springs before turning in a more northerly direction. It enters Glen Rose, where it has a one-mile concurrency with US 67.[3] After separating from US 67, the highway resumes its northward journey to Granbury, where it intersects the US 377 bypass.[4] The SH 144 designation ends at an intersection with Bus. US 377 in central Granbury.[1]

History

SH 144 was designated on March 17, 1930, from Glen Rose to Meridian. The road from Cleburne to Walnut Springs was erroneously omitted from the state highway log, but was designated as SH 144T. On November 30, 1932, SH 144T was officially added to the state highway log.[5] On December 8, 1932, SH 144T was decommissioned as the construction on the section of SH 144 from Walnut Springs to Glen Rose was taken over and construction had started on it. On July 12, 1933, it was extended north to Granbury and then northwest via Lipan to Brandon's Bridge.[6] On October 9, 1934, it was rerouted west to northwest of Lipan.[7] On July 15, 1935, everything north of Glen Rose was cancelled.[8] The section from Glen Rose to Granbury was restored on September 22, 1936.[9] An alignment of the route in Glen Rose was previously designated Spur 216 before being combined with SH 144 on September 26, 1949.[10]
