State Highway 127 (SH 127) is a state highway in Uvalde County in the U.S. state of Texas that connects Sabinal and Concan in south Texas.[1]

Route description

SH 127 begins in Sabinal at an intersection with US 90 and RM 187.[2] The highway travels north through Sabinal along Center Street, concurrent with RM 187, before separating from that route and turning toward the northwest. After crossing the Sabinal River, the highway travels through unincorporated Uvalde County, intersecting FM 30, FM 1049, and FM 2690.[3] The route crosses the Frio River at Concan before ending at a junction with US 83.[4]

History

The original SH 127 was designated by 1928[5] as a route from Cotulla eastward through Tilden to Oakville, and replaced a portion of SH 12B. This route was canceled prior to 1933 before it was built. The current route of SH 127 was then proposed by 1933 on a portion of the previously proposed SH 30.

Major intersections

The entire route is in Uvalde County.
