Route description

FM 3412 begins at an intersection with FM 1378 in Wylie, Collin County, heading east on two-lane undivided West Brown Street. The road heads through a mix of fields and woods with some commercial development. Farther east, the highway heads into residential areas with some businesses.

History

FM 3412 was designated on September 27, 1977 to run from FM 544 near Murphy east to SH 78 in Wylie. On January 9, 1978, the two highways switched alignments, with FM 3412 running from FM 1378 east to SH 78 in Wylie. FM 3412 officially became UR 3412 on June 27, 1995.[1] The portion of the route from FM 1378 to FM 2514 was given to the city of Wylie on November 20, 2008 (this section is now Brown Street); this transfer has not completely taken effect yet, as there is still signage on the west side. The remainder of the route from FM 2514 to SH 78 was transferred to FM 2514 on May 28, 2009, but this section was given to the city of Wylie on March 27, 2014. The road was expanded into four lanes in January 2014.
