History
Certified in 1932, SR 292 was originally a spur route that traveled from
Ridgeway to
Mount Victory via its current routing from Ridgeway up to the current
SR 273 junction, and SR 273 from that point east to SR 31 in Mount Victory.
Five years later, the highway was extended south to
East Liberty, and with an extension of SR 273 over what was SR 292 east to Mount Victory, SR 292 was also extended north from the SR 273 intersection north to a new northern terminus at SR 31 just south of Kenton.
By 1997, when US 33 was converted to a four-lane expressway through southeastern Logan County, SR 292 was extended again, taking over several miles of the U.S. highway's former two-lane alignment, as far as a point in southern
Jefferson Township between Zanesfield and
Valley Hi, where SR 292 arrived at what is currently its southern terminus at a diamond interchange with the new expressway.
