WV 92 through Nestorville and Kasson 1946 Barbour County

Between 1938-41, WV 92 was removed from CR 92/25 Dunham Cut near Belington; CR 92/27 Coyote Run Rd; a number of abandoned alignments up to Meadowville.
About 1942, WV 92 was rerouted south of US 50 to its current routing replacing the original CR 92/14, leaving behind a new CR 92/14, CR 92/13 and some US 50. In this rerouting, WV 92 came from the other direction and a wye intersection was constructed where it left heading for Reedsville. This wye was bigger than traditional WV wye set-ups and the former path of WV 92 leaving US 50 became WV 92-Y (now physically destroyed).

In the early 1950s, WV 92 was extended northwest with WV 7 to Morgantown, then on new routing along Monongahelia Blvd north then west across the river, then following more existing WV 7 to Pursglove, then as a mix of new construction and upgrading CR 50 to meet US 19 (now WV 100) just below the Pennsylvania line.

Improvements: Upon designation, WV 92 was paved only from Nestorville halfway to Kesson and on the US 50 overlap.
In 1933, WV 92 was paved from Belington to Nestorville; short stretch north of Newberg; Arthurdale to Reedsville.
In 1938 or 1939, WV 92 was paved on the new Nestorville-Kasson bypass.
About 1940, WV 92 was paved from US 50 to Newberg
In 1941, WV 92 was paved from Newberg to Arthurdale and from Kasson to the Preston County line
In 1942, WV 92 was paved from US 50 south to the Barbour County line, making WV 92 fully paved.
WV 92 was placed on a multilane alignment when added to a part of Corridor H in 1994.
Comment: WV 92 has long overlays to get between Belington and where it leaves WV 39 to head for White Sulphur Springs. Not sure why it was necessary to have one route number do this instead of just having WV 28 extended south.
