State Highway 85 or SH 85 is a state highway in the U.S. state of Texas that runs almost 77 miles from Carrizo Springs to Charlotte.

[edit] Route history

SH 85 was originally designated by 1933 along a route from Del Rio to Dilley via Eagle Pass and Carrizo Springs. In 1950, the section from Del Rio to Carrizo Springs was transferred to newly extended U.S. Route 277. SH 85 was extended along its current route to Charlotte in the late 1960s.
