Previous routes
SH 47 was originally planned on August 21, 1923, along a previous section of SH 1A and SH 1C from near the Texas–Arkansas–Louisiana tripoint, northwest through Atlanta, then northeast through Texarkana to the Arkansas state line north of Texarkana.[2] On June 24, 1931, the highway was rerouted west from Atlanta to Daingerfield, replacing SH 48, while the old route southeast of Atlanta became part of SH 77[3] On April 19, 1938, SH 47 Bypass was designated from SH 47 to SH 1.[4] SH 47 Bypass extended north to SH 5 on October 24, 1938.[5] On September 26, 1939, this classification was canceled when the route was transferred to SH 11. SH 47 Bypass became Loop 14.
