State Highway 114 (SH 114) is astate highway that runs from theDallas–Fort Worth metroplex westward acrossTexas to theNew Mexico state line, where it becomesNew Mexico State Road 114, which eventually ends atElida, New Mexico atUS 70 /NM 330.
The route was originally designated on April 14, 1926, as a connector betweenDallas andRhome.[2] In June 1932, SH 114 was extended toBridgeport.[3] On February 12, 1935, an extension northward fromChico toSunset was added.[4] On July 15, 1935, the section from Chico to Sunset was cancelled (as it was not fully built).[5] This section was restored on August 1, 1938.[6] On October 6, 1943, the section of SH 114 from US 77 in Dallas to US 67 became a portion ofLoop 12. On October 1, 1968, the concurrency with SH 24 from Bridgeport to Chico was removed because SH 24 (now US 380) was rerouted. On January 7, 1971, SH 114 was relocated to Bridgeport. This route remained little changed until November 3, 1972, when it was extended northward from Sunset toBowie. Major rerouting was made on November 24, 1975, when the route was redirected west overU.S. Highway 380,U.S. Highway 281, formerSH 199, andU.S. Highway 82 from Bridgeport toLubbock, with the stretch from Bridgeport to Bowie renumbered asSH 101. On December 14, 1977, the route was extended to the New Mexico state line, replacingSH 116. The connecting NM 116 was renumbered to NM 114.
On August 2, 1985,Delta Air Lines Flight 191 crossed this route shortly before crashing on approach toDallas/Fort Worth Airport. One of the aircraft's engines struck a car on the roadway, instantly killing its occupant; 136 people on the flight also died in the accident.
In 2010, work began on an 8.4 miles (13.5 km) stretch, dubbed the DFW Connector, betweenSH 121 andInternational Parkway. A quarter of the $1 billion project was funded by federal stimulus funds enacted under theAmerican Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.[7] The project's aim was to ease congestion at North Texas' worst traffic problem. The project called for as many as 24 lanes and 2 TEXpress lanes along a 4 miles (6.4 km) mile stretch betweenSH 26 and International Parkway.[7][8] TheTexas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) awarded the project in a joint venture led byKiewit.[9] The SH 114 section of the DFW Connector was completed in 2014.[8]
SH 114 starts at the New Mexico state line about 17 miles west ofMorton, Texas. The route passes throughWhiteface,Levelland, andSmyer as Levelland Highway before joining 19th Street inLubbock. SH 114 crosses overLoop 289 and while crossing overUS 82 joins withUS 62, forming the southern edge of theTexas Tech University campus. After crossingUS 84, the highway veers northeast, joining US 82 before crossing over Loop 289 and leaving Lubbock as Idalou Road.
Past Lubbock, SH 114 passes through the rural towns ofIdalou,Lorenzo,Ralls (where US 62 turns north),Crosbyton,Dickens,Guthrie,Benjamin,Vera,Red Springs, andSeymour, where US 82 splits north off of SH 114. From there, the highway passes throughMegargel,Olney,Loving, andJermyn before enteringJacksboro withUS 281. In Jacksboro, SH 114 joinsUS 380 and US 281 splits off to the south as SH 114 continues east.
Past Jacksboro, SH 114 passes throughRunaway Bay,Bridgeport, where SH 114 splits off of US 380,Paradise,Boyd,Aurora, andRhome, briefly running concurrent withUS 81 andUS 287 before enteringFort Worth and passing theTexas Motor Speedway and crossingI-35W.
In theDFW Metroplex, SH 114 goes throughRoanoke, crossingUS 377 and becoming a freeway, the Northwest Parkway. The highway passes throughWestlake,Southlake, andGrapevine. There, SH 114 forms the northern edge of theDallas Fort Worth International Airport with SH 121. The highway becomes the John W. Carpenter Highway as it travels southeast to its eastern terminus atSH 183. A road was designated on February 21, 1938, from SH 114 to SH 121; eitherSH 114 Loop orSH 121 Loop.[10] This was renumbered asLoop 10 on September 26, 1939.
SH 114 has three currentbusiness routes.
Business State Highway 114-B (formerlyLoop 44) is aBusiness Loop that runs from SH 114 on the west side ofLevelland (in west Texas) south along West Street, then east through the downtown area on Houston Street to an intersection withUS 385 (College Street). The road turns left (north), concurrent with US 385, until intersecting once again at SH 114. The road was designated asLoop 44 on September 26, 1939, as a renumbering of SH 24 Spur, but was changed to Business SH 114-B on January 26, 1993, by district request, and is 1.594 miles (2.565 km) long.[11][12]
Business State Highway 114-J is aBusiness Spur that goes east intoRhome from the intersection ofUS 81/US 287 and SH 114 west. The route runs along Rhome Avenue to an intersection with Business US 81-E. It is part of a previous route of SH 114. The Business route was designated on May 31, 1972, asTexas State Highway Spur 440 (but signed as Business SH 114), but it was changed to its current designation on June 21, 1990, and is 0.329 miles (0.529 km) long.[13][14] Note that an earlier Spur 440 was designated on October 3, 1966, as a spur ofSH 34 inEnnis. This was cancelled on or before the day the later Spur 440 was designated.[15]
Business State Highway 114-K is a business loop that runs throughRoanoke. This route runs on Byron Nelson Boulevard, along a previous route of SH 114. The business route was created in 2001 when SH 114 was rerouted further north and east around town. The route is 1.787 miles (2.876 km) long.[16]
Business State Highway 114-H was located inBridgeport between June 21, 1990, and March 29, 2007, and was 1.3 miles (2.1 km) long. The route went east along Halsell Avenue from an intersection with SH 114, to an intersection with 13th Street, then turned right (south) until another intersection with SH 114. This route had been previously designatedLoop 373 on November 1, 1962; since 2007, though, the portion along 13th was changed back to Loop 373.[17][18]
Business State Highway 114-L (formerlyLoop 382 as well as a previous routing of SH 114) is a business loop that runs throughGrapevine. This route runs east on Northwest Highway to an intersection with Texan Trail, then turns right to go southbound there. The road continues until it reaches SH 114/SH 121. The portion of the business route along Texan Trail is concurrent with SH 26. The route was designated on April 18, 1963, asTexas State Highway Loop 382 (but signed as Business SH 114), until June 21, 1990, when the road's designation as Loop 382 was discontinued.[19][20] On November 21, 2013, the entire route was removed and returned to the city of Grapevine.
