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.^[2] In 1992, the district requested and was granted renumbering of this route to SH 112.^[2][1] This was due to the numerous thefts of the popular SH 69 signs.^[2] 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.
