Length9.07 mi[3] (14.60 km)
Existed1942[3]–present

Farm to Market Road 22, or FM 22, in the eastern part of Texas (USA), runs about 9.07 miles (14.60 km) from an intersection with US 69 in Craft east through Turney and Gallatin, then onward to an intersection with TX 110 south of the community of Ponta. The road is located in north-central Cherokee County.

FM 22 has no local street names. Mostly rural for all of its length, FM 22 passes by a landscape of rolling hills of trees and farmland. All of FM 22 has 2 lanes and no shoulders.

The original commissioning for FM 22 by Minute Order came in 1942. Another Minute Order was added in 1970, this added 1.2 miles (1.9 km) more to the road. This extra mileage was along a route west of Craft, to an intersection with FM 347 south of Jacksonville. By 1972 though, the extra mileage added in 1970 was cancelled, and FM 22 returned to its previous length. It is unclear exactly when any part of FM 22 was built. The road serves just the 3 towns of Craft, Turney, and Gallatin. The western terminus intersection connects to US 69 which goes north to Jacksonville and Tyler, and south to Rusk and Lufkin; while the eastern terminus intersection connects to TX 110 which goes north to Ponta and New Summerfield, and south to Rusk. FM 22 only has intersections at county roads, besides its multiplex with FM 768 in Gallatin, and its termini at US 69 in Craft and at TX 110 south of Ponta.

Major intersections

The route is in north-central Cherokee County, in the communities of Craft and Turney, and the city of Gallatin.

Farm to Market Road 220, or FM 220, in eastern Texas (USA), runs about 4.07 miles (6.55 km) from an intersection with a county road, north to TX 21 southwest of Alto. Prior to 1951, the FM 220 designation belonged to a road in Hamilton County starting with a Minute Order in 1945. This version of FM 220 originally went from Lanham to Fairy. A 1948 Minute Order extended the road to Hico from Fairy, for 9.8 miles (15.8 km). Another addition came by Minute Order in 1949, for 4.7 miles (7.6 km) miles past Lanham. This FM 220 was cancelled in 1950 and changed designations to FM 1602[7].

FM 220 has no local street names. Rural for the most part, the landscape along the road includes rolling hills of alternating open pastures and trees. The road has 2 lanes and no shoulders for its entire length. All of FM 220 is in far southwest Cherokee County.

The road was commissioned in 1951, though it is unclear as to when FM 220 was completed. The road serves no towns but is closest to Alto. The road connects the rural area to TX 21, which goes southwest to Crockett and east to Alto and Nacogdoches. FM 220 only intersects with local county roads besides that of TX 21, its north terminus.

FM 235 has no local street names. Mostly rural for all of its length, FM 235 passes by a landscape of rolling hills of trees and farmland. All of FM 235 has 2 lanes and no shoulders.

The original commissioning for FM 235 by Minute Order came in May 1951. The road in that Order spanned 4.7 miles (7.6 km) from TX 110 eastward. Another Minute Order was added in November 1951, this added 6.3 miles (10.1 km) more to the road. The road serves just the town of New Summerfield and comes close to Reklaw. The western terminus intersection connects to TX 110 which goes south to Rusk, Texas and north to Troup and Tyler; while the eastern terminus intersection connects to TX 204 which goes southeast to near Nacogdoches and northwest to Jacksonville.

Farm to Market Road 747, or FM 747, in eastern Texas (USA), runs about 21.03 miles (33.84 km) from an intersection with US 84 west of Maydelle, north to a multiplex west of Jacksonville, then west (but still signed north) to a county road east of the border of Cherokee and Anderson counties.

FM 747 has no local street names. Mostly rural, the landscape along the road is mainly hilly with trees and farms. The west shore of Lake Jacksonville can be seen for a portion of FM 747, looking east, for a short span south of US 79. The road has 2 lanes and no shoulders for its entire length. All of FM 747 is in west-central Cherokee County.

The road was commissioned in September 1947 originally, and has gone through 4 changes since, even though it is unclear as to when any part of FM 747 was constructed to completion. The Minute Order in September 1947 was for FM 747 to be 8.2 miles (13.2 km) from southwest of Jacksonville to US 79 in Jacksonville. October 1947 was the next dated Minute Order, adding 0.9 miles (1.4 km) further southwest. In 1949, another Minute Order added 7.2 miles (11.6 km), bringing FM 747 further south to an intersection with US 84 west of Maydelle. The change of FM 747's northern terminus was the subject of the August 1957 Minute Order, this took FM 747 outside Jacksonville (to make way for the construction of Lake Jacksonville) to a new terminus point on US 79. Finally, the road took its current shape with a Minute Order in October 1957, which added a 6.5 miles (10.5 km) western extension north of US 79[11]. The road serves the communities of Pierce's Chapel and New Hope. The road connects the rural area to US 79 which goes east (but is signed north) to Jacksonville and west (but is signed south) to Palestine. FM 747 intersects with various county roads, its multiplex with US 79, and US 84, its southern terminus. A Union Pacific rail line also crosses the road just north of US 79.

The road is located in central Cherokee County. Originally, FM 752 was shorter due to the commission in the Minute Order in 1947; its southern terminus was 7.8 miles (12.6 km) south of Rusk, then north to downtown Rusk. A 1972 Minute Order added 6.5 miles (10.5 km) more from another road, FM 2139, which brought the southern terminus down to Alto.

FM 752 has 3 local street names: Quincy Avenue and Palestine Street in Alto, and Main Street in Rusk. Urban at each terminus and largely rural for the rest of its length, FM 752 passes by a landscape of rolling hills of trees and farmland. All of FM 752 has 2 lanes and no shoulders.

Even though FM 752 was originally commissioned in 1947, it is unclear exactly when any part of FM 752 was built. The road serves just the towns of Alto and Rusk. The southern terminus intersection connects to TX 294, which goes west to Elkhart and is a short distance from TX 21, which goes east to Nacogdoches and southwest to Crockett.

Farm to Market Road 2493, or FM 2493, in the eastern part of Texas (USA), is a major thoroughfare that is approximately 21 miles (34 km) in length from an intersection with FM 177 west of Mixon northwestward, then north through Bullard, Flint, Gresham, then into Tyler where it intersects US 69. The road is located in far north-central Cherokee County and south-central Smith County. As of 1995, the section of the road from Gresham to Tyler is considered an Urban Road but is still signed as a Farm to Market Road[23].

FM 2493 has 2 local street names: Houston Street in Bullard and Old Jacksonville Highway in Tyler. Rural at its southern end, the road gets progressively urban as it gets closer to Tyler. FM 2493 passes by a landscape of rolling hills of trees and pastures/farmland on the portions that have not been developed. All of FM 2493 has had 2 lanes and no shoulders, but parts of the road in and near Tyler are changing to a widened 4-lane as traffic increases.

The original section of FM 2493, from the US 69 intersection south of Bullard, north for 16.1 miles (25.9 km) was commissioned by Minute Order in 1957, then another Minute Order added in 1962, 5.3 miles (8.5 km) more, intersecting the road with FM 177 west of Mixon. It is unclear, exactly when any part of FM 2493 was built. The road serves the 3 towns of Bullard, Flint, and Gresham, and the city of Tyler. The southern terminus intersection connects to FM 177, which goes east to Mixon and west to Mount Selman; while the northern terminus intersection connects to US 69, which goes south to Jacksonville, and north around downtown Tyler to Lindale and Mineola. Besides its county road intersections, FM 2493 briefly multiplexes with US 69 south of Bullard, crosses FM 344 in Bullard and FM 346 in Flint, intersects FM 2813 and crosses Loop 49 in Gresham, intersects TX 57 and crosses Loop 323 in Tyler. The only other intersections on FM 2493 are its termini at FM 177 west of Mixon and at US 69 in Tyler.

Farm to Market Road 2972, or FM 2972, in eastern Texas (USA), runs about 3.67 miles (5.91 km) from an intersection with FM 347 south of Dialville, east to an intersection with US 69 in Rusk. Before 1970, a different FM 2972 existed by Minute Order starting in 1965 in Shepherd spanning .7 miles (1.1 km) from an intersection on TX 150. In 1968, another Minute Order added 1.2 miles (1.9 km) miles more to that road. In 1969, though, this previous version of FM 2972 was cancelled and added to FM 222.

FM 2972 has no local street names. Rural for much of its length, except in the vicinity of its eastern terminus, the landscape along the road includes rolling hills of alternating open pastures and trees. The entire road has 2 lanes and no shoulders. All of FM 2972 is in central Cherokee County.

The road was commissioned in 1970, though it is unclear as to when FM 2972 was completed. The road serves no towns other than Rusk, at its eastern terminus. The road connects the rural area to 2 other roads: FM 347, which leads south to Oakland, and north to Jacksonville; and US 69, which goes north to Jacksonville and Tyler and south into Rusk as well as Lufkin. Besides county roads, FM 2972 intersects with FM 343.

Major intersections edit

The route is in central Cherokee County, in and northwest of Rusk.

Farm to Market Road 3052, or FM 3052, in eastern Texas (USA), runs about 3.33 miles (5.36 km) from an intersection with FM 177 in Mixon, north to a county road at the border of Cherokee and Smith counties.

FM 3052 has no local street names. Rural for the most part, the landscape along the road includes rolling hills of alternating open pastures and trees. The road has 2 lanes and no shoulders for its entire length. All of FM 3052 is in far north-central Cherokee County.

The road was commissioned in 1966, though it is unclear as to when FM 3052 was completed. The road serves no towns other than Mixon. The road connects the rural area to 3 other roads: FM 177, which leads west to Mount Selman; FM 2493, which intersects FM 177 just west of Mixon, and goes northwest, then north, to Bullard and Tyler; and TX 135, (which intersects FM 177 just east of the FM 3052 southern terminus) which goes southwest to Jacksonville and northeast to Troup. FM 3052 only intersects with local county roads besides that of FM 177, its south terminus.

Major intersections edit

The route is in far north-central Cherokee County, in and north of Mixon.

Farm to Market Road 3198, or FM 3198, in the eastern part of Texas (USA), runs about 1.52 miles (2.45 km) from east of the dam at Lake Palestine east, then northeast, to an intersection with FM 855. A road in Willacy County previously was designated as FM 3198, from FM 1762 to TX 186, spanning 1.5 miles (2.4 km). That designation was in effect from mid-1970 to early 1972.

FM 3198 has no local street names. Rural for its whole length, the landscape along the road includes rolling hills of trees and farmland. The east shore of Lake Palestine can be seen to the west of the road's west terminus. All of FM 3198 has 2 lanes and no shoulders.

The road was commissioned by Minute Order in 1972, but it is unclear exactly when FM 3198 was built. The road serves no towns, but connects 2 county roads to FM 855, which leads south (signed 'west') to Cuney, and north, then east, to Mount Selman, all in the northwest part of Cherokee County.

Major intersections edit

The route is in the southeast vicinity of Lake Palestine, in Cherokee County.

Farm to Market Road 3288, or FM 3288, in eastern Texas (USA), runs about 2.95 miles (4.75 km) from an intersection with FM 2274 east, then south, to an intersection with a county road west of Lake Striker. The road is in far east-central Cherokee County. Previously, the FM 3288 designation belonged to a roadway in Titus County that spanned 2.5 miles (4.0 km) from Hickory Hill to TX 11. This previous designation was effective from late 1972 to late 1973.

FM 3288 has no local street names. Rural for the most part, the landscape along the road includes rolling hills of alternating open pastures and trees. Parts of the west shore of Lake Striker can be seen to the east of FM 3288. The road has 2 lanes and no shoulders for its entire length.

The road was commissioned in 1974, though it is unclear as to when FM 3288 was completed. FM 3288 serves no towns, just rural residents living at or near Lake Striker. The road connects the rural area to FM 2274, which leads north to US 79 (which goes south (in a westerly direction) to Jacksonville, and north (in a northeasterly direction) to Henderson). FM 3288 only intersects with local county roads besides that of FM 2274, its west terminus.

Farm to Market Road 3540, or FM 3540, in eastern Texas (USA), is a road designation that will run about 2.1 miles (3.4 km) from an intersection with TX 135 in Tecula, east to the vicinity of a future lake, Lake Columbia[32].

There are no local street names along the path of the future road. Rural for all its length, the landscape along the road includes rolling hills of alternating open pastures and trees. The entire road has 2 lanes and no shoulders. All of FM 3540 will be in north-northeast Cherokee County.

The Minute Order for this future road was commissioned in 2005, the path of which will follow the southern end of the current FM 2064. It is unclear as to when FM 2064 was completed. The road will serve no towns other than a small community, Tecula, at its western terminus. The road will connect the rural area to TX 135, which leads southwest to Jacksonville) and northeast to Troup; there will be only intersections with local county roads from FM 3540 otherwise.

Impact from future lake edit

Plans have been in the works for many years for Lake Columbia to be built along Mud Creek, which FM 2064 crosses. In advance of construction, a new Minute Order was commissioned in 2005, to reduce the mileage of FM 2064 to 5.6 miles (9.0 km). This change will affect the road by splitting it in two, and its intersection at the current southern terminus at TX 135 in Tecula, will not connect to the shortened FM 2064 afterward. Therefore, the future installation of the separate FM 3540. As of yet, construction on the lake has not commenced, so signage and length of FM 2064 has not yet changed to reflect the 2005 Order for FM 3540[31][33].

Major intersections edit

The route will be in north-northeast Cherokee County, between Jacksonville and Troup.
