Loop 306 is a state loop that encircles much of San Angelo, Texas. Loop 306 begins on the north side of San Angelo, at the U.S. 67/277 interchange, and continues south on the eastern edge of town. The highway multiplexes with U.S. 87 while being routed west. The multiplex ends at the U.S. 87/277/Loop 306 interchange, with 306 routed northwest. Loop 306 ends at the Business 67 (Sherwood Way) overpass, however the freeway continues and is signed as US 67, Houston Harte Expressway; named after the San Angelo-native publishing magnate. The route is often referred to locally as "the Loop" or "Loop 306", despite the terminus of Loop 306 at Sherwood Way. TxDOT upgraded portions of Loop 306 to expand it from a two-lane road to a four-lane divided highway. From the US 67/277 interchange, Loop 306 continues as a four-lane divided highway all the way to U.S. 87. The upgrades included adding two overpasses and improvements to a divided highway.

Junction list

The entire route is in San Angelo, Tom Green County.
