Nebraska Highway 92 is a highway in Nebraska. Its western terminus is at the Wyoming border west of Lyman, Nebraska and its eastern terminus is in Omaha at the Missouri River, where it enters Iowa. Nebraska Highway 92 is part of a continuous 4-state "Highway 92" which begins in Torrington, Wyoming, goes through Nebraska and Iowa and ends in La Moille, Illinois. It is the only Nebraska Highway to run from the west border to the east border of Nebraska.

Route description

Nebraska Highway 92 begins at the Wyoming border west of Lyman and after a brief turn south, goes east towards Scottsbluff. At Scottsbluff, it overlaps U.S. 26 and Nebraska Highway 71 to Gering, where it then turns in an east-southeast route paralleling the North Platte River. Near Chimney Rock, it overlaps U.S. 26 again until Bridgeport. After a brief concurrency with U.S. 385, it goes southeast until it crosses the North Platte just before Broadwater. It then again overlaps U.S. 26 a third time from there until Lewellen, where it separates to go along the north shore of Lake McConaughy until it meets Nebraska Highway 61.^[1][2]

It overlaps Highway 61 and goes north into the Sand Hills and separates in Arthur. It then goes east until it encounters Nebraska Highway 2 at Merna and then goes southeast with Highway 2 through Broken Bow and then separates at Ansley. It then runs east through Loup City and meets with U.S. 281 in St. Paul.^[1][2]

After St. Paul, it is together with US 281 briefly and then goes straight east, crosses the Platte River near Clarks and meets U.S. 81 west of Osceola. It is then concurrent with U.S. 81 through Osceola and Shelby, before separating east of Shelby. It then passes through Rising City and then goes straight east until it meets U.S. 77 southwest of Wahoo, Nebraska. It passes through Wahoo concurrent with U.S. 77 and goes east with U.S. 77 until they separate near Mead. After passing the south edge of Yutan, it recrosses the Platte River.^[1][2]

It then encounters U.S. 275, with which it for overlaps the rest of its distance in Nebraska. Shortly after meeting U.S. 275, it crosses the Elkhorn River and becomes a 4 lane divided expressway shortly before meeting U.S. 6 and Nebraska Highway 31. It remains a 4 lane highway until just before the South Omaha Veterans Memorial Bridge, which crosses the Missouri River to enter into Iowa. Within Omaha, it meets Interstate 80 and U.S. Route 75. The street designations for Highway 92 in Omaha, going west to east, are West Center Road, Industrial Boulevard, L Street and Missouri Avenue.^[1][2]
