'''Loop 337''' is a {{convert|8.3|mi|km|-long|adj=mid}} partial [loop route](/source/loop_route) around the city of [New Braunfels](/source/New_Braunfels%2C_Texas) in the [U.S. state](/source/U.S._state) of [Texas](/source/Texas). The loop was designated in 1960. Loop 337 begins and ends at [I-35](/source/Interstate_35_in_Texas) and shares a concurrency with [SH 46](/source/Texas_State_Highway_46) from the interchange at SH 46 eastward to I-35.

==History==
Loop 337 was first designated on June 1, 1960 as a loop around New Braunfels from I-35 southwest of New Braunfels, around the north side of the city, and ending at and intersection of [US 81](/source/U.S._Highway_81_in_Texas) and [FM 25](/source/Farm_to_Market_Road_25) east of the [Guadalupe River](/source/Guadalupe_River_(Texas)).<ref name="Loop 337"/>  On October 21, 1967, SH 46 was rerouted to run concurrently along the eastern half of the loop.<ref>{{TxDOT|SH|46|accessdate=2008-03-03}}</ref>  On February 26, 1968, the clockwise end of the loop was extended to I-35 over part of FM 25.<ref name="Loop 337"/><ref>{{TxDOT|FM|25|accessdate=July 15, 2018|link=no}}</ref>

==Route description==

Loop 337 begins on the southwestern side of New Braunfels at I-35, heading north through the city predominantly as a surface street with at-grade intersections.  There are a few exceptions to this, the first being at Landa Street:  Loop 337 passes over the street and the railroad track running parallel to it; access to Landa Street is provided by way of a single ramp. After this interchange Loop 337 turns towards the northeast and into the city, where it meets SH 46 at a [diamond interchange](/source/diamond_interchange). From here and to the east, Loop 337 and SH 46 run along the northern fringes of the city limits as a concurrent, co-signed route.  As the loop turns towards the southeast, another interchange due to a railroad bridge occurs at Rock Street and [Gruene Road](/source/Gruene%2C_Texas).  After crossing the [Guadalupe River](/source/Guadalupe_River_(Texas)), Loop 337 turns towards the south at the Common Street intersection.  The route comes to an end at I-35 on the northeastern side of the city, while SH 46 continues on to the south toward [Seguin](/source/Seguin%2C_Texas).<ref name="Google Maps">{{google maps |url=https://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&hl=en&geocode=6107469766247961480,29.674162,-98.154743%3B16346153137364342012,29.719390,-98.151354%3B7279314463594966700,29.700288,-98.093804&saddr=S+Ruekle+Rd+%4029.674162,+-98.154743&daddr=TX-46+%4029.719390,+-98.151354+to:S+TX-46+%4029.700288,+-98.093804&via=1&doflg=ptm&sll=29.701995,-98.128255&sspn=0.077834,0.123425&ie=UTF8&z=13 |title=overview map of Loop 337 |accessdate=2008-03-03}}</ref>
