State Highway 81 or SH 81 is a state highway that runs from Grandview to Hillsboro. It was designated in 1991 to replace U.S. Route 81, which was decommissioned.

[edit] Previous routes

SH 81 was previous proposed as an ambitious route through central Texas, beginning in De Leon and travelling south into the Texas Hill Country, then turning southeast through San Antonio, with a final ending point at Cuero. By 1939, the entire route north and west of San Antonio had been transferred to SH 16, while the section east of San Antonio was transferred to U.S. Route 87.
