U.S. Route 380 is an east-west United States highway. The highway's eastern terminus is in Greenville, Texas at an intersection with Interstate 30, of which the easternmost 3-4 miles are co-located with US 69 in a loop around the west and south sides of Greenville. Its western terminus is at San Antonio, New Mexico, south of Socorro at an intersection with Interstate 25. It never intersected with its nominal parent, US 80, instead connecting with US 180 in Albany, Texas. With later routing changes, the highway no longer connects to any x80 route. US 380 passes through the far northern suburbs of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex.

When US 380 was commissioned in 1932, it took over the entire former route of U.S. Route 566, an original 1926 route. The entire route of US 566 was within the state of New Mexico, from an intersection with US 366 (modern-day US 70) east of Ruidoso to US 85 in Socorro, New Mexico. US 566 never intersected with its nominal parent, U.S. Route 66. [1]
