Route description

The western terminus of SH 141 is at US 281 (Future I-69C) in Jim Wells County; the continuation past US 281 to Benavides is designated FM 2295. [2] The route travels east into Kleberg County and into the city of Kingsville, where it ends at I-69E/US 77. [1] [3]

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]
