From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wyoming Highway 22 (WYO 22, Teton Pass Highway) is a State Highway in Wyoming. Spanning 17.53 miles from the concurrency of U.S. Route 26/89/189/191 (Broadway) in Jackson Hole, Wyoming to Idaho State Highway 33 at the Idaho-Wyoming state line, WYO 22 passes through Teton Pass.
[edit] History
WYO 22 used to connect to former Alternate US 20. That route used to begin at U.S. Route 20 at Sugar City, Idaho. It followed Idaho State Highway 33 until the state line, then connected with WYO 22. Alternate US 20 used to end at the state line to connect and be redesignated as WYO 22, mainly because Wyoming didn't extend the route into the state. If that route were to be extended, it would have taken over the entire route of WYO 22, and overlap U.S. Route 26 until it reached U.S. Route 20 in Shoshoni.[1]
