Route description
SH 57 begins at an intersection with SH 155 in southwestern Tyler. The route travels to the east before ending at FM 2493. The roadway continues under local maintenance as Grande Boulevard.[1][2] SH 57 is four lanes with a center turn lane for its entire length.[3]
History
SH 57 was originally designated by 1926 on a route along the Gulf Coast from Tivoli to near Corpus Christi. By 1928, it had extended to Palacios. By 1935, this route was renumbered as part of SH 35.[4]
The SH 57 designation was once again used beginning in 1966, on a route from Eagle Pass to near Moore, as a renumbering of SH 76 and to coincide with Mexican Federal Highway 57. This route would be renumbered US 57 in 1971.[1]
The current SH 57 was designated in 1994.[1] There are plans for the highway to be extended west to connect with Segment 3 of the under construction Loop 49.[citation needed]
Major intersections
The entire route is in Tyler, Smith County.
