[edit] Route description
While the current designation of State Route 92 was created in 1962, the route has undergone significant realignment since then. Initially, the route connected Daleville and Wicksburg in Dale County, running in a southeasterly direction from a junction with State Route 85 to a junction with U.S. Highway 84.[1] The route was realigned in 1995 when it essentially exchanged routes with US-84. The former route of State Route 92 was improved; becoming a four-lane divided highway, and US-84 was realigned to the enhanced roadway.[2] By rerouting US-84 through Daleville, it provided access to Fort Rucker along a U.S. highway.
The current route of State Route 92 travels through Coffee and Dale Counties along a two-lane road, mainly through rural areas of Alabama's Wiregrass region and travels in a general east-west orientation. The route shares a brief concurrency with State Route 85 as it approaches Clayhatchee.
