    U.S. Highway 175 is an east-west United States highway completely within the state of Texas. It comes very close to meeting its parent route, US 75, but decommissioning and rerouting in downtown Dallas, Texas brings it a couple of miles short. Before the decommissioning of US 75 south of downtown Dallas in favor of Interstate 45, US 175 met its parent US 75. US 175's western terminus is in Dallas, Texas at Interstate 45. The highway's eastern terminus is in Jacksonville, Texas at an intersection with US 69. Much of the US 175 corridor is part of TxDOT's network of evacuation routes in the event of a hurricane.
