State Highway 112 or SH 112 is a short segment highway that runs through the northern portions of Eastland County. The highway was previously designated as SH 69 in 1971. In 1992, the district requested and was granted renumbering of this route to SH 112. This was due to the numerous thefts of the popular SH 69 signs. The SH 69 route designation was not used previously, and has not been used since.

[edit] Previous Routes

SH 112 was originally planned by 1933 as a route from Karnes City north to Nixon then northeast to near Gonzales. The route was completed by 1939, but was reassigned to SH 80 and SH 200.
