→State Highway 119 or SH 119 is a state highway in the U.S. state of Texas that runs from Stockdale to Alt. US 77 and U.S. Highway 183 north of Goliad.
Route description
SH 119 begins at an intersection with U.S. Route 87 and State Highway 97 just southeast of the city of Stockdale. It travels southeast through farm and ranchland before reaching Yorktown. The route continues southeast, passing through the unincorporated town of Weesatche before reaching its southern terminus at an intersection with U.S. Route 183 and U.S. Route 77 Alternate, about 9 miles north of Goliad.
History
The route was originally proposed in 1928 from Yorktown to Goliad. The route was completed by 1933, and was proposed to be extended southward to Refugio. By 1935, the section from Weesatche south to Goliad, along with the extension south to Refugio, was transferred to SH 29, which was being extended southward from Cuero. In 1939, the route was extended northward from Yorktown to an intersection with State Highway 123 on the south side of Stockdale.
