State Route 82 (SR 82) is a secondary state highway that runs through Moore and Bedford counties in south central Tennessee in the United States. The route runs from an intersection with SR 55 in Lynchburg north and east to SR 64 near Beech Grove. The route heads northwest from Lynchburg as a two-lane road to Shelbyville, where it passes through the town as a multilane road. In Shelbyville, SR 82 heads north concurrent with U.S. Route 231 (US 231) on a multilane highway to south of Deason. At this point, the route turns east onto a two-lane road and passes through Bell Buckle before reaching its terminus.
SR 82 begins at an intersection with SR 55 in Lynchburg, Moore County, heading northwest on two-lane undivided Flat Creek Highway, a secondary state route. The road runs through a mix of farm fields and woods with some homes and curves to the north, winding through more rural land. The route leaves Lynchburg/Moore County for Bedford County and continues northwest through fields and forests as an unnamed road. SR 82 turns north and passes through the community of Flat Creek before bending back to the northwest and heading through more rural areas with a few homes. The road turns north and then northwest again before passing near rural residential development and crossing the Duck River. The route enters Shelbyville and becomes Kingree Road, running northwest through residential areas. SR 82 turns north-northwest onto South Britain Street before it curves to the north and becomes South Jefferson Street, widening to four lanes. The road passes to the east of downtown Shelbyville and comes to an intersection with SR 64, at which point that route turns north for a concurrency with SR 82. The two routes follow North Jefferson Street north, crossing the unused tracks of the Walking Horse and Eastern Railroad, before curving west and becoming East Lane Street. The road passes businesses to the north of downtown before SR 82 splits from SR 64 by turning north onto North Main Street, a three-lane road with a center left-turn lane. The route continues to an intersection with US 231 Bus. (SR 10), at which point those two routes turn north to join SR 82. The road passes more businesses and gains a second northbound lane, crossing US 41A (SR 16). The three routes continue along a commercial strip as a five-lane road with a center left-turn lane before coming to an intersection with US 231 (SR 387), where US 231 Bus. comes to its northern terminus.
