Farm to Market Road 148 (FM 148) is a farm to market road located in Kaufman County in Texas.
FM 148 begins at an intersection with State Highway 274 near Kemp just west of Cedar Creek Reservoir. The highway runs in a west–east direction from SH 274 to FM 3094, making a 90-degree angle to the north towards Grays Prairie. FM 148 enters the town of Scurry, sharing a short overlap with State Highway 34. The highway runs in a northwest direction to Crandall before turning northeast at US 175. The highway enters the town of Talty before entering Terrell. FM 148 meets Interstate 20 and Spur 557 in a fast growing area of the town's southwest side, before seeing less development. The highway ends at an intersection with US 80, continuing north as State Highway 205.
FM 148 was originally designated on February 28, 1945, running from US 175 in Crandall to US 80 in Terrell. The highway was extended further south on June 28 of that year to Peeltown. FM 148 was extended again on November 1, 1961 to SH 274, absorbing Farm to Market Road 988. On June 2, 1967, it was relocated east of Peeltown, with the old route becoming FM 3094. [2] A bypass from US 175 east of Crandall to present FM 148 was legislated on August 16, 2023. [3] When this bypass is built, FM 148 will be rerouted over it, Farm to Market Road 3039 will be extended east over the old route of FM 148 to the bypass, and the remainder of the old route will be redesignated as FM Spur 148.
The entire route is in Kaufman County.

U.S. Highway 175 (US 175) is a 111.0-mile (178.6 km) east-west United States Numbered Highway located completely within the state of Texas. It comes very close to meeting its parent route, US 75, but decommissioning and rerouting in Downtown Dallas leaves it short a couple of miles. Before the decommissioning of US 75 south of downtown Dallas in favor of Interstate 45 (I-45), US 175 met US 75. US 175's western terminus is in Dallas at I-45. The highway's eastern terminus is in Jacksonville at an intersection with US 69.
State Highway 46 is a 71.4-mile (114.9 km) state highway in the U.S. state of Texas that runs from SH 16 east of Bandera to the intersection of SH 123 and SH 123 Business just south of Seguin.
State Highway 34 is a state highway in the U.S. state of Texas that runs from Honey Grove to Italy near the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex.
State Highway 72 is a Texas state highway that runs approximately 111 miles (179 km) from near Fowlerton to Cuero in South Texas.
State Highway 205 is a Texas state highway that runs from SH 78 at Lavon to US 80 at Terrell. This route was designated on May 15, 1934, from Terrell to Rockwall, and was extended north to Lavon on September 1, 1939. The route has been under heavy construction since 2006 as part of a new expansion and widening project, and was scheduled to be completed in 2011. The highway has a bypass road as well, John King Blvd., which begins near the Collin county border, and ends just before the intersection with Farm to Market Road 549.
State Highway 208 is a Texas state highway that runs from San Angelo to southeast of Spur.
Loop 7 is a beltway in the U.S. state of Texas around the town of Athens. The highway additionally serves as a bypass for U.S. Highway 175 (US 175), State Highway 19 (SH 19), and SH 31 around the town.
There are currently four business routes of U.S. Route 175 that are designated and maintained by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). The business routes in the US state of Texas are traditionally short spurs or loops that connect the main route, in this case, U.S. Route 175 (US 175), to the center or commercial district of a city. The routes commonly follow the course of a decommissioned state highway, or the old course of the main route. Business routes are signed with the traditional US 175 highway shield, and with a small "business plate" placed above the marker. TxDOT regards business routes as official highways, and is responsible for the maintenance of the route.
