Route description
History
SH 141 was originally designated on September 18, 1929, from Kingsville west to Benavides,[4] but was shortened to its current route on July 15, 1935, because the section from SH 66 to Benavides was never built.[5] The designation was extended slightly to the east, to the bypass of US 77 in Kingsville, on June 26, 1962.[1]
