State Highway 141 is a Texas state highway in Jim [Wells County, Texas|Jim Wells] and Kleberg [County, Texas|Kleberg] counties.

Route description

The western terminus of SH 141 is at U.S. [Route 281 in Texas|US 281] in Jim Wells County; the continuation past US 281 to Benavides is designated FM 2295. The route travels east into Kleberg County and into the city of Kingsville, where it ends at I-69E/U.S. [Route 77 in Texas|US 77].

History

SH 141 was originally designated on September 18, 1929 from Kingsville west to Benavides, but was shortened to its current route on July 15, 1935 because the section from SH 66 to Benavides was never built. The designation was extended slightly to the east, to the bypass of US 77 in Kingsville, on June 26, 1962.
