→Farm to Market Road 1585 (FM 1585) is a Farm to Market Road located in the South Plains region of Texas. The section of highway between U.S. Highway 62/U.S. Highway 82 (US 62/US 82) and US 87 has seen rapid growth along its route in the past few years, as Lubbock expands southward.
Route description
FM 1585 begins at an intersection with FM 769 at the Texas-New Mexico state line, south of Bledsoe. The highway travels through rural areas of Cochran County, intersecting with SH 214.
