System links

Recreational Roads are a secondary state highway system located in the U.S. state of Texas, and are created and maintained by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). Recreational Roads are similar to the state's Park Road system. The Recreational Road system provide access to recognized recreation areas, such as those operated by the National Park Service. The Park Road system provides access to state-maintained parks.[2] Currently, RE 8 is the only route which deviates from the system, as it serves Choke Canyon State Park.[3] Recreational Roads currently make up approximately 80.5 miles (129.6 km) of Texas's highway system.[4] The longest route in the system is Recreational Road 255 (RE 255), at approximately 56.6 miles (91.1 km); the shortest route in the system is RE 6 at just 0.3 miles (0.48 km).[1]

The system was created on April 1, 1970, by TxDOT Minute Order 063535, which redesignated a portion of Farm to Market Road 255 (FM 255), as RE 255.[5][6] Except for RE 255, TxDOT numbers the recreational routes sequentially. RE 2 is the system's second oldest route, and is numbered accordingly, while RE 11 is the system's eleventh route, the newest one, and is numbered as such.[7] Recreational Roads are given with a route marker that is very similar to the sign which marks the Farm to Market Road system, with just a few differences. The most noticeable difference is that the base color for the Farm to Market Road marker is black, while the base color for the Recreational Road sign is brown.[8]

Recreational Roads can have Recreational Road Spurs, which are roads that travel from a road in the Recreational Road system to a local, and usually non-state-maintained roadway.[2] Currently, there are no recreational road spurs designated,[4] although, during the 1970s, RE 255 had a short spur that connected it to the community of Beans.[5][9]

History[edit]

The Recreational Road System began on April 1, 1970, when TxDOT Minute Order 063535 was passed, designating RE 255 and RE 2. Two weeks later, on April 15, the TxDOT's Administration Circle approved the route of RE 255, and authorized its creation.[5] On May 7, 1970, Minute Order 063621 was passed, which designated RE3, and on June 1 of the same year, both RE 2 and RE 3 were approved for creation by the Administration Circle. On September 1, RE 4 was designated, and was approved on October 15, 1970. On April 3, 1972, RE 5 was designated, and was approved less than two weeks later. In October of the same year, RE 6 was designated and approved. On the first of April, 1981, RE 7 was designated and approved. Later that month, RE 8, was designated, and in June of that year, it was approved. On October 31, 1993, RE 9 was designated, and it was approved in December. In October 1996, RE 10 was designated, and it was approved on December 20. RE 11, was the last route to be created, being approved on December 20, 1996.[7] On July 10, 2012, RE 5 was cancelled from the system, and turned over to the control of Polk County.[10] It is currently the only Recreational Road to have been completely canceled. RE 255 and RE 8 are the only routes in the system that have been edited.[7]

Signage[edit]

Recreational Roads are signed with a reassurance marker, or highway shield, that is very similar to the one used for the Farm to Market Road System. The Recreational Road marker, like the Farm to Market Road shield, is rectangular, with the shape of the state of Texas located in the center, with the route number in the center of that. While the FM shield has the word "FARM" located in the top right corner, and the word "ROAD" located in the bottom right corner, the RE shield has the letter "R" located in the top right corner instead. The base color for the FM shield is black, while the base color for the RE shield is brown. The shields are square in shape, with the dimensions of 24 by 24 inches (61 cm × 61 cm) or 36 by 36 inches (91 cm × 91 cm).[8]

Highways[edit]

Main article: Texas Recreational Road 2

RE 2 begins at the Rough Canyon Recreational Area, in the northern portion of Amistad National Recreation Area. The western end of the road is at the boat launch on Devils River at the northern end of the Amistad Reservoir. The roadway runs northeasterly past the Rough Canyon Campground, past a small mobile home park, still inside the national recreation area.[12] RE 2 turns directly east at an intersection with Cam Real Road. The highway exits Amistad, and continues through the South Texas shrubland, passing a few small roads and homes, which are part of the community of Devils Shore. The highway runs through several miles of shrubland, before reaching its western terminus, an intersection with US 277/US 377.[13][14] A road first appeared in the location of RE 2 by 1940. The route was gradually improved and straightened. RE 2 was designated on June 1, 1970, and by 1972, its course was nearly identical to the present state.[11]

Recreational Road 255[edit]

Recreational Road 255
Location: Tyler County–Jasper County
Length: 56.596 mi[42] (91.082 km)
Existed: 1970–present
Main article: Texas Recreational Road 255
The Sam Rayburn Dam, with RE 255 in front of it

RE 255 is a Recreational Road located in Tyler, Jasper, and Newton counties, in the southeastern region of the U.S. state of Texas. The highway is approximately 56.6 miles (91.1 km) long, and travels through mainly rural areas in the northern portion of the three counties.[42] RE 255 begins at an intersection with U.S. Route 69 (US 69), in Tyler County, near the city of Colmesneil. The route travels through rural farmland in northern Tyler County, and crosses the Neches River into Jasper County. The roadway intersects State Highway 63 (TX 63) and US 96, and helps form part of the Sam Rayburn Dam. The route continues into Newton County, intersecting TX 87, before terminating at an intersection with Farm to Market Road 692 (FM 692), near the Louisiana border. RE 255 helps provide access to Angelina National Forest, the Sam Rayburn Reservoir, and the Toledo Bend Reservoir, which give the highway its Recreational Road designation.[2]

Recreational Road 255 began as Farm to Market Road 255, with the first section of the route being designated in 1945.[42] Throughout the 1950s and the 1960s, FM 255 was extended several times, with the final extension being made in early 1970. The first stretch of RE 255 was designated in 1970 by Minute Order 063535, creating the first Recreational Road. The highway was extended three more times in the 1970s, completely replacing FM 255.[42] FM 255 had a short spur that was designated in 1970, and was transferred over to RE 255 in 1974 when the main route was replaced. RE 255 Spur was cancelled in 1979.[42][6]
