Route description

FM 1535 begins at Interstate 410 in Castle Hills. The route travels north through north central San Antonio, crossing Wurzbach Parkway, and into Shavano Park, where it has a junction with Loop 1604. FM 1535 ends at the San Antonio city limits, at the entrance to the Camp Bullis Military Training Reservation.[1][2]

History

FM 1535 was designated in 1955. Its designation was officially changed to Urban Road 1535 (UR 1535) in 1995; however, as with other urban roads, TxDOT continues to sign the route with the farm-to-market route marker.[3]

Historically, another FM 1535 was designated in Freestone County in 1949. This route was never constructed due to lack of funding and the designation was relinquished in 1955.[1]
