A state highway, state road, or state route is usually a road that is either numbered or maintained by a sub-national state or province. A road numbered by a state or province falls below numbered national highways in the hierarchy. Roads maintained by a state or province include both nationally numbered highways and un-numbered state highways. Depending on the state, "state highway" may be used for one meaning and "state road" or "state route" for the other.

U.S. state constituent political entity of the United States

In the United States, a state is a constituent political entity, of which there are currently 50. Bound together in a political union, each state holds governmental jurisdiction over a separate and defined geographic territory and shares its sovereignty with the federal government. Due to this shared sovereignty, Americans are citizens both of the federal republic and of the state in which they reside. State citizenship and residency are flexible, and no government approval is required to move between states, except for persons restricted by certain types of court orders. Four states use the term commonwealth rather than state in their full official names.

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. [3] [4] 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. [5] [6]
