[edit] Route description
FM 1177 is a two-lane route for its entire length. The western terminus is in Wichita County south of Burkburnett, near Cashion, at an intersection with SH 240. The route travels east and enters Clay County, where it ends at FM 171 near Thornberry.[1][2]
[edit] History
FM 1177 was designated in 1949.[1] While the designation file specifies US 77, it is likely a typographical error intended to say US 277, as SH 240 was designated over the old alignment of US 277 in Wichita County in 1964.[3]
