It also connects to many corporate buildings by the road's southern terminus on the fringe of DFW Airport. Route descriptionThe designation officially started at Dove Loop Road in North Grapevine as a two-lane road. The road then travels southward passing many houses and a strip mall before intersecting with Northwest Highway, where the road widens to four lanes. The road keeps on its southern path and continues through Downtown Grapevine. The city hall is also located along this stretch of road. The road passes more shops and small streets before intersecting with Dallas Road, another artery in Grapevine. This is where planned FWTA (TexRail line) station "Downtown Grapevine" will be.[2] The convention center and library are located just about {{convert|1/2|mi|km}} down the road from this intersection. The road continues southward and intersects with the State Highway 114/State Highway 121 (SH 114/SH 121) freeway corridor. The road then terminates just after Mustang Drive, {{convert|1|mi|km|spell=in}} down the road from SH 114/SH 121. Also, two festivals happen along this road, Main Street Days and Grapefest, in the spring and fall respectively. This usually causes the road to de detoured along Dallas Road, as many tourists come for the festivals.[3][4] HistorySpur 103 was originally assigned to a road from US 79 east of Jewett to Newby on May 9, 1940. This route was transferred to FM 1512 on August 25, 1949. The Spur 103 designation was applied to the roadway connecting SH 121 to a then-planned SH 114 on April 25, 1960. The designation was later cancelled and the roadway was removed from the state highway system. Since December 15, 2006, Main Street has been under the control of the City of Grapevine.[1] In 2010, with the DFW Connector Project in full force, constructors were planning to demolish the current Main Street bridge, and replace it with a new one to "ease up traffic below on the SH 114/SH 121 freeway corridor", planners said. This involved a detour along Texan Trail during the morning hours, which easily caused backups of traffic in the morning hours. The new bridge would have one extra lane on each side, to allow traffic to "flow along the bridge much easily than before". The entire project (also involved re-routing the freeway, adding toll lanes, and re-doing interchanges) was mostly completed in April 2014.[5] Signage still says State Spur 103.
