County Road 92 - San Marco Road

County Road 92 connects Marco Island with the Collier County mainland along San Marco Island. The 11.45 mile long highway provides one of two routes to the coastal community from the east. CR 92 also serves Goodland via CR 892 south.
San Marco Road was originally a part of State Road 27A, a spur southwest from U.S. 94 at Royal Palm Hammock to Goodland Bay. SR 27A was extended west to Collier City on Marco Island by 1945. The 1946 statewide renumbering of Florida State Roads changed SR 27A to SR 92. SR 92 was downgraded to County Road 92 by August 1987.

CR 92 is umarked along San Marco Road across the city of Marco Island. San Marco Island stems east from Collier Boulevard (CR 951) t0 Heathwood Drive.
