State Highway 30 (SH 30) runs from Business SH 6-R in College Station via Roans Prairie to SH 19 in Huntsville. It is known as Harvey Road between Business SH 6-R and FM 158 in College Station, as 11th Street between I-45 and US 190 (Phelps Dr) in Huntsville, and as Riverside Drive east of US 190 (Phelps Dr) in Huntsville.
The current version of SH 30, the second route with that designation, was established in 1960. The previous designation existed from 1917 to 1939, when it was replaced with US 277.
SH 30 was a route proposed on October 8, 1917, to run from Wichita Falls to Abilene. [2] On December 18, 1917, an intercounty highway from Abilene to Paint Rock was designated. [3] On August 19, 1918, the intercounty highway became part of SH 30. [4] On April 23, 1919, the road was extended to Sabinal. [5] On August 21, 1923, the southern portion was rerouted into Del Rio on August 21, 1923, over part of SH 7A and SH 4. [6] The old route became part of rerouted SH 23, with the section south of Menard cancelled. That same day, SH 30 extended to the Oklahoma state line, replacing a portion of SH 2. On March 17, 1924, SH 30 extended to the Mexico border. [7] On September 26, 1939, the highway was cancelled as U.S. Highway 277 was routed over its entirety from Del Rio to Wichita Falls.
The current iteration of SH 30 was designated on December 15, 1960, replacing SH 45 and parts of FM 60 and FM 158 to avoid confusion with I-45. On May 21, 1979, SH 30 was extended from I-45 to SH 19, replacing part of SH 19, which was rerouted over former Loop 405.
SH 30 may be part of the future Interstate 14 corridor. [8]

State Highway 1 was a state highway in the U.S. state of Texas. The highway traveled from Texarkana on the eastern border to El Paso on the western border, via Dallas and Fort Worth, Abilene, and Midland–Odessa. SH 1 was approximately 842 miles (1,355 km) long, and was one of the original 25 Texas state highways, which were designated on June 21, 1917. In 1920, the entire length of the highway was designated as part of the Bankhead Highway, a transcontinental Auto trail. In the Texas Department of Transportation's 1939 state highway renumbering, most of SH 1 was redesignated as U.S. Route 80, as well as U.S. Route 67, and others. Most of these highways were replaced by Interstate 10, Interstate 20, and Interstate 30. The only portion of SH 1 that existed after September 26, 1939, was a short spur located in Dallas. Texas State Highway 1 was officially cancelled on August 20, 1952. Due to the highway's historic value, a highway cannot be designated as State Highway 1 unless by the order of TxDOT Executive Director or by the Transportation Commission.
