Farm to Market Road 1097 (FM 1097) is a state highway in the U.S. State of Texas. FM 1097 originally began at FM 149 in Montgomery, Texas, and ends nearly thirty miles away at Highway 150. Most of the road has only two lanes each direction. The speed limit ranges from 60 mph (97 km/h) to 35 mph (56 km/h). There are very few traffic lights on the highway.
Farm to Market Road 1097 was first designated on December 16, 1948. The highway traveled from an intersection with FM 149 north of Montgomery along its present route to an intersection with U.S. Route 75 in Willis. On July 22 of the next year, the designation was extended 8.9 miles (14.3 km) to the Walker County border. The road was extended 1.2 miles (1.9 km) eastward, to the highway's present eastern terminus, on November 20, 1951. On August 1, 1962, the highway was extended 6.9 miles (11.1 km) northwestward to its present northern terminus.
