  ## History
  
  When Pennsylvania first legislated routes in 1911, what is now PA 292 was not given a number. PA 292 was designated in 1928 to run from PA 92 (now PA 29) east to US 309 (now PA 92) in southern Wyoming County, following its current alignment east to Center Moreland before following Creamery Road, Schoolhouse Road, and Keelersburg Road east to US 309. At this time, the entire length of the route was unpaved. By 1930, PA 292 was shifted to ts current alignment between Center Moreland and US 309, which was unpaved. The entire length of PA 292 was paved in the 1930s.
