Kentucky Route 92 (KY 92) is a 112.485-mile-long (181.027 km) state highway Kentucky. The route is split into two segments by Lake Cumberland and is one of a few state routes in Kentucky with two discontinuous segments on both sides of a body of water. The western segment, which is 17.221-mile-long (27.715 km), runs from Kentucky Route 55 west of Joppa to a dead end on Lake Cumberland south of Jamestown via Joppa, Montpelier, Esto, and Jamestown. The eastern segment, which is 95.264-mile-long (153.313 km), runs from a boat ramp on Lake Cumberland northwest of Monticello to U.S. Route 25E west of Fourmile via Monticello, Barrier, Stearns, Carpenter, Timsley, and Ingram.
The building of Wolf Creek Dam and the subsequent creation of Lake Cumberland divided the two portions of the road, as it did several other state highways in this portion of the state.
