Texas State Highway 63


State Highway 63 is a highway in east Texas that runs from Zavalla through Jasper, continuing east to the Louisiana state line. The route is proposed to become an extension of I-14 in the future.

History

The highway was originally designated on August 21, 1923 along the easternmost branch of previously numbered State [Highway 7 |SH 7] from Zavalla southeast to Bon [Wier, Texas|Bon Wier]. On September 26, 1939, the section from Jasper to Bon Wier was transferred to U.S. [Highway 190 |U.S. Highway 190], while SH 63 was rerouted northeast to the Louisiana state line via Burkeville, replacing part of State [Highway 45 |SH 45]. This is its current routing.

Future

As part of the I-14 System in Texas project, SH 63 between Jasper and the Louisiana state line is proposed to be upgraded to interstate standards and become I-14.
