State Route 92 (SR 92, commonly called the Granite Falls Highway) is a short 8.25-mile (13.28 km) long Washington state highway entirely in Snohomish County. The roadway connects SR 9 north of Lake Stevens' Frontier Village district to the Mountain Loop Highway in Granite Falls, serving as the primary connector to Granite Falls. The first form of transport to use the current route was the Monte Cristo and Everett Railroad, which roughly followed the current roadway. In 1937, Secondary State Highway 15A (SSH 15A) was established on a route from Primary State Highway 15 (PSH 15) / U.S. Route 2 (US 2) northeast to a concurrency with SSH 1A then east to Granite Falls. Later in 1964, SSH 15A became SR 204, SR 9 and SR 92. Recently, the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) has completed small projects to improve SR 92, including two roundabouts within the first two miles of the highway's western terminus and a roundabout/truck bypass of Granite Falls.
