State Highway 290 or SH 290 is a Texas state highway that runs from Interstate 10 near Sheffield east to another connection with I-10 about 20 miles east of Sheffield. This route was designated in 1992 as a replacement for U.S. Route 290 when it was shortened to end in Junction.

[edit] Previous routes

SH 290 was previously designated in 1939 as a route from Lubbock west to the New Mexico state line. This replaced a portion of SH 24 when it was shortened. This route was redesignated in 1955 as SH 116 to coincide with its corresponding New Mexico state highway.
