U.S. ROUTE 82
(Redirected from U.S. Highway 82)
'U.S. Route 82' is an east-west United States highway. What started as a 1932 addition to the system[2] across central Mississippi and southern Arkansas eventually became a 1,609 mile (2,589 km) route extending from the White Sands of New Mexico to Georgia's Atlantic coast.
As of 2006, the highway's eastern terminus is in Brunswick, Georgia, at an intersection with Interstate 95. It is co-signed for its last half mile with U.S. Route 17. Its western terminus is in Alamogordo, New Mexico at an intersection with U.S. Route 54 and U.S. Route 70 (though some signs continue the route to Interstate 25 in Las Cruces).[3]
The east ends of US 82 and U.S. Route 84 were swapped in 1989 after the roads around Waycross, Georgia, were reconfigured.
The highway passes through the following states:
★ Georgia. Throughout much of southern Georgia, U.S. 82 is paired with State Route 520 and designated as "Corridor Z" and "South Georgia Parkway." West of Dawson, U.S. 82 is paired with Georgia Hwy 50, the historic State Route number for U.S. 82 in Georgia.
★ Alabama. Throughout Alabama, U.S. 82 is paired with unsigned State Route 6.
★ Mississippi The Mississippi section of U.S. 82 is defined in Mississippi Code Annotated § 65-3-3.
★ Arkansas Most of the Arkansas section was originally Highway 2.
★ Texas
★ New Mexico
