FM 1171 was first designated on March 30, 1949 from proposed US 77 west 5.3 miles (8.5 km) to a county road; at that time, the Lewisville area was undeveloped, and current alignment of
A spur route of FM 1171 existed from August 1, 1963 to May 30, 1990; it connected with mainline FM 1171 east of I-35E and traveled south along Mill Street to an intersection with SH 121. This mileage was transferred to
On June 27, 1995, the designation of the section east of US 377 to SH 121 was transferred to Urban Road 1171 (UR 1171). On December 18, 2003, the eastern portion, from I-35E to the former route of SH 121 (now Business SH 121), was removed from the state highway system at the request of the City of Lewisville.[5] The designation of the extant section reverted to FM 1171 with the elimination of the Urban Road system on November 15, 2018.[6]
Future Extension
Due to growth in Denton County, TxDOT is planning a 3.5 mile western extension of FM1171, starting at Farm to Market Road 156 near Justin and ending at the current I-35W western terminus of the existing road.[7] The planned extension would be six lanes at each end and four lanes in the middle.

The entire route is in Denton County.
