Spur 69 is a four-lane state-maintained roadway in Austin, Texas[1]. It is 1.2 miles in length and is named Koenig Lane (pronounced /ˈkeɪnɪg/). It forms a link between RM 2222 and US 290 at I-35. Spur 69 is signed over its entire length as RM 2222, rather than as Spur 69.

Between 1939 and 1945, Spur 69 referred to a short section what is now SH 12 near Deweyville. The current location in Austin was first assigned in 1969.

In 1990, Spur 69 was redesignated as State Highway 169; the designation was reverted to Spur 69 in 1991.
