Route description

History

SH 100 was an original 1920s state highway, following the route of what is now US 160 through the state, though the modern SH 100 doesn't follow any part of this route. Instead, the current SH 100 was originally designated as a spur route of the historic SH 100 in 1965. When the historic designation was decommissioned in 1968, the current route assumed its number.
