California State Route 92, is an east-west highway in the San Francisco Bay Area between Half Moon Bay, California near the coast (and California State Highway 1) in the west and downtown Hayward, California at its junction with California State Highway 238. It has interchanges with three freeways: Interstate 280 (the Junipero Serra Freeway) and U.S. Highway 101 (the Bayshore Freeway) in or near San Mateo, and Interstate 880 (the Nimitz Freeway).
Between Half Moon Bay and Interstate 280, Route 92 winds through the Coast Range as a narrow, mainly undivided two and three lane highway with a switchback turn. The east-bound uphill portion was upgraded with a long passing lane. Between Interstate 280 and Interstate 880 it is all divided multilane highway, including the toll Hayward-San Mateo Bridge which has the longest crossing of San Francisco Bay. East of Interstate 880 it becomes a divided surface street in Hayward.
All of Route 92 that is not already a freeway or a toll bridge has been proposed as a freeway, none of which has been built. An upgrade of the intersection with Main Street in Half Moon Bay is in the late planning stage.
