State Highway 112 (SH 112) is a short state highway that runs through the northern portions of Eastland County in the U.S. state of Texas. The routing was previously designated as State Highway 69 in 1971.[2] Vandalism to the road signage as a result of its numbering had reached epidemic proportion by 1989, driving a resolution that the number of the road needed to be changed. The cost of resigning the roadway was considered reasonable by local governments, compared to that of the measures by law enforcement agencies that would be necessary to stop the vandalism. In 1992, the district requested and was granted renumbering of this route to State Highway 112.[1][2]
