State Highway 206 or SH 206 is a Texas state highway running from US 67 near Coleman northeast to Cisco. This route was originally designated by 1939, replacing a section of SH 29 between Coleman and Cross Plains. The route was slowly extended northeast from Cross Plains to what is now Interstate 20 between 1960 and 1963. The route was extended into Cisco in 1991, replacing US 80 when it was decommissioned.
