Route description

SR 292 is a two-lane road entirely within the southern part of the Pueblo Valley. The route begins at a T intersection with State Route 140 (SR 140) in Denio Junction.

From its southern terminus SR 292 heads north, but slightly to the west, a distance of nearly Script error: No such module "convert". to serve the community of Denio (a census-designated place).[1][2] The route ends at the Oregon state line. From SR 292's northern terminus, the road continues northward into Oregon as Harney County Route 201 (Fields-Denio Road), heading towards Fields.[3][4]

History

SR 292 was originally part of the former State Route 8A. That route, established by 1929, connected State Route 8 (now US 95) to Vya via Denio.[5] SR 8A was realigned to bypass Denio by 1949, leaving the highway into Denio without a state highway number.[6] The road was designated as State Route 292 on July 1, 1976, as part of the renumbering of Nevada's state highway system.[7] However, the new route number was not seen on official Nevada highway maps until 1993.[8]
