Farm to Market Road 2696 (FM 2696) is a Шаблон:Convert farm to market road in Bexar County, Texas.[1] It is known in Greater San Antonio as Blanco Road, a major north–south thoroughfare.[1]

Route description

FM 2696 begins at Interstate 410 at the western fringe of Uptown San Antonio, just east of Castle Hills.[2] The route travels north through north central San Antonio, crossing Wurzbach Parkway and Loop 1604.[2] It then runs along the eastern edge of the Camp Bullis Military Training Reservation.[2][3] The FM 2696 designation ends at the San Antonio city limit south of the Comal County line.[3] Blanco Road itself continues under Comal County maintenance to an intersection with SH 46 in Bulverde.[4][1]

History

FM 2696 was designated on March 22, 1961, from Loop 410 (now Interstate 410) northward Шаблон:Convert to the Camp Bullis Entrance. FM 2696 was extended north three times: by Шаблон:Convert on September 29, 1977, Шаблон:Convert on October 21, 1981, and Шаблон:Convert to near the Comal County line on October 26, 1983.[1] The segment between I-410 and Loop 1604 was officially changed to Urban Road 2696 (UR 2696) on June 27, 1995.[5] The designation reverted to FM 2696 with the elimination of the Urban Road system on November 15, 2018.[6]

On December 18, 2014, the northernmost Шаблон:Convert of the route, from the San Antonio city limit near Calico Landing to the Comal County line, was removed from the state highway system and returned to Bexar County.[7] A previous turnback proposal would have decommissioned the entirety of FM 2696, but it was rejected by San Antonio city officials. The city instead passed a different proposal, which also resulted in the turnback of many other highways, on the day that FM 2696 was truncated.[8][9]

As part of the Loop 1604 reconstruction project in northern San Antonio which began in 2021, the connection between FM 2696 and Loop 1604 is being converted to a diverging diamond interchange.[10]
