State Highway Loop 288 is a state highway in the city of Denton, Texas. The southern portion of the loop has shopping centers, restaurants, and interchanges, while at the north side of the loop, it is rural and turns into a highway, with side streets, and one traffic light for Kings Row. It was constructed in 1955, and was finished in the 1970s. On the north side of town, the loop runs next to the C. H. Collins Athletic Complex. The road begins at an interchange with Interstate 35 (I-35) on the northwestern corner of Denton and loops around the north, east and southeast sides of the city before ending at another intersection with I-35E adjacent to Denton's shopping mall. Loop 288 is signed as a truck route for traffic traveling east on US Highway 380 (US 380) towards McKinney.
