History

FM 665 was designated in 1945, from US 77 in Driscoll to SH 44 in Corpus Christi. It was extended to Alice in 1955, replacing a portion of FM 666 from Driscoll to current FM 666 and the entirety of FM 736 from FM 70 to SH 359.[6][7] The portion east of SH 357 in Corpus Christi was officially redesignated as Urban Road 665 in 1995; as with other urban roads, TxDOT continues to sign the route with the Farm Road marker.[8]
