      Route history


      The current version of SH 5 was established on April 29, 1959 initially as a replacement for the former routing of U.S. 5.180.24.3/info/highway" target="_blank">Highway 75 from Richardson north to McKinney when US 75 was rebuilt further to the west. The route was extended north to Howe on October 27, 1967 to replace another portion of US 75 that had been upgraded on a new route just to the west. Between 1987 and 2018, the southern terminus was moved northward as portions of the 5.180.24.3/info/highway" target="_blank">highway were returned to local cities: First, ending at SH 190 on May 28, 1986, then ending at the northern Plano city limit on October 28, 1987, at the Exchange Parkway in Allen on March 27, 2003, and finally, at FM 2786 (Stacy Rd.) on January 25, 2018.

It continued on, routed along present day U.S. 5.180.24.3/info/highway" target="_blank">Highway 287 to Wichita Falls, and from there following present day U.S. 5.180.24.3/info/highway" target="_blank">Highway 82 to Texarkana.

SH 5 Loop and SH 5 Spur became Loop 6 (Kirkland), Loop 11 (Wichita Falls), Spur 23 (Annona), and Loop 37 (Avery).
