Unofficially, the route is locally called the Loop Rd. The 1.6-mile (2.6 km) route designated between 1933 and 1936 runs from the combined U.S. Route 67 and U.S. Route 90 in front of Sul Ross State University on the west side of town to SH 118 on the city's north side. There are no intersections with other highways between its termini. A number of the city's significant points of interest are located along the route.
