Heading towards the north, the highway continues to a junction with FM 2011. The highway continues to the north to an intersection with FM 2204. It continues to the north to a junction with FM 349 in Lakeport. As the highway continues to the northeast, it intersects SH 149 in Lakeport. SH 320 and SH 149 begin to run concurrently to the north until they split in Longview. SH 322 reaches its northern terminus at I-20 in Longview. The roadway continues to the north as Loop 281.[2]
History
[edit]SH 322 was designated in 1939, running from SH 26 (now US 259) in Henderson, passing near Crims Chapel and Monroe, to the Gregg–Rusk county line. In 1944, the highway was extended north to SH 149 south of Longview. In 1967, SH 322 was extended northward to I-20.

Notes
[edit]- ^ The official length is shorter than the actual length as TxDOT considers SH 322 to be discontinuous at SH 149 rather than concurrent with it.
