Farm to Market Road 1472 or FM 1472 is a farm-to-market road that connects the Laredo, Texas Industrial Area to the Colombia-Solidarity International Bridge, then running roughly parallel to the Rio Grande into rural Webb County. The portion of the route between Interstate 35 and SH 255 was officially redesignated from Farm to Market Road 1472 to Urban Road 1472 in 1995 by the Texas Department of Transportation due to the growth of the Laredo urban area and the construction of the Columbia-Solidarity International Bridge northwest of the city. FM 1472 is a six-lane route known as Mines Road.
