Route description

WYO 216 begins its west end at an intersection with U.S. Route 85 (US 85) that is located 26 miles (42 km) northeast of the I-25/US 85 split.[1] WYO 216 travels east intersecting WYO 213 (Burns North Road) after just 3.4 miles (5.5 km).[2] WYO 216 continues east, passing through Albin between 15.83 and 16.18 miles (25.48 and 26.04 km).[1] At 16.47 miles (26.51 km), WYO 216 intersects the northern terminus of WYO 215. WYO 216 then continues east to Laramie County Route 164 (State Line Road), located on the Nebraska–Wyoming state line, where it terminates.[2]

History

The Wyoming Highway 216 designation was originally commissioned in 1926 in Weston and Crook counties. US 16 and WYO 116 were designated the same year. WYO 216 began as a state route, but was quickly added to the U.S. route system as US 216. However, in 1936, US 216 became part of the US 16 mainline, and the US 216 designation was deleted.[1]

Major intersections

The entire route is in Laramie County. [3]
