[edit] History

In 1995, the designation of RM 2244 was changed to Urban Road 2244 (UR 2244)[2], although as with most Urban Roads, no signage changes have been made.

[edit] Route Description

RM 2244 starts at an intersection with SH 71 in the south part of Bee Cave, Texas. It proceeds east for 7.6 miles as a four-lane divided roadway to intersect Loop 360. After leaving Bee Cave, the road is relatively lightly-developed, although it passes by the community of Lost Creek.

After passing Loop 360, RM 2244 continues southeast for 6.5 miles to its termination at Loop 1 (Mopac Boulevard), just southwest of downtown Austin. In this segment, RM 2244 passes through the suburban cities of West Lake Hills and Rollingwood.
