Route description

FM 2252 begins at a junction with Interstate 410 in San Antonio, and travels north along Perrin-Beitel Road. It crosses the controlled-access portion of Wurzbach Parkway, and turns to the northeast, where the route becomes Nacogdoches Road. FM 2252 intersects Loop 1604 before entering Comal County and the community of Bracken. The route continues to the northeast, intersecting FM 3009 in Garden Ridge, before making a dogleg turn to the southeast.

History

FM 2252 was designated in 1954, with a northern terminus at the Comal County line. It was extended to its current length in 1973, through Comal County to and along FM 1337 which started at Bracken, with a spur route into Bracken. The spur route was removed in 1976.[1] In 1995, the portion between IH 410 and FM 3009 was officially changed to Urban Road 2252 (UR 2252); however, as with other urban roads, TxDOT continues to sign the route with the farm-to-market route marker.[3]
