Route description

Sign marking the western end of Wyoming Highway 92, in Torrington WY.

Highway 92 begins in downtown Torrington at an intersection with U.S. Routes 26 and 85.[3] Highway 92 proceeds southward, concurrent with US 85 Business. In one half-mile Highway 92 intersects mainline US 85 again, where US 85 Business ends and the concurrency with the mainline begins. The routes cross the North Platte River and intersects the eastern terminus of Highway 156 in an area known as South Torrington.[2] Leaving Torrington, the highway intersects the northern end of Highway 154 before splitting off from US 85. US 85 then continues south toward Cheyenne while Highway 92 turns east. Highway 92 travels southeasterly to the community of Huntley, a Census-designated place (CDP), where it intersects the eastern terminus of Highway 161 as the road turns east.[2] Highway 92 zigzags southeast of Huntley where it intersects the western (northern) terminus of Highway 158 as it heads for the Nebraska state line.[2] At the Nebraska state border near Lyman, Nebraska the roadway continues east as Nebraska Highway 92.

Wyoming Highway 92 follows State Control Number 807 for its entire length[3]

Major intersections

The entire route is in Goshen County. [4]
