>State Highway 83 is a state highway in the U.S. state of Texas that runs 56 miles (90 km) from the New Mexico border in Yoakum County east to Welch in northwest Dawson County. This route was designated in 1955, having replaced SH 328 "for the convenience of the traveling public", as it connected with New Mexico Highway 83 at the New Mexico state border. In 1988, the New Mexico connecting highway was renumbered New Mexico Highway 132.
[edit] Previous routes
The original SH 83 was designated by 1933 along a route from the New Mexico border east to an intersection with SH 18 in western Shackelford County. This replaced the previous designation of SH 18A. The route was transferred to U.S. Highway 180 in 1943.
