State Highway 82 or SH 82 is a state highway in the U.S. state of Texas that runs 13 miles from Port Arthur to the Louisiana border, where it becomes Louisiana Highway 82. This route was designated in 1975.

[edit] Previous Routes

SH 82 was originally designated by 1933 on a route from the New Mexico border near Kermit south to Ft. Stockton, with a planned extension south to Sanderson. This planned extension was transferred to newly designated U.S. Route 285 in 1935. In 1958, the route was renumbered as SH 18, to coordinate with its intersection with New Mexico State Highway 18.
