==Route description==
The southern terminus of Loop 82 is at [[Interstate 35 in Texas|Interstate 35]] Exit #204A; the route travels along Guadalupe Street to the north of the exit, while [[Texas State Highway 123|SH&nbsp;123]] begins in the other direction. At Grove Street, the route splits along a pair of one-way streets, with northbound traffic using LBJ Drive and southbound traffic using Guadalupe Street. Loop 82 crosses [[Ranch to Market Road 12|RM&nbsp;12]] before the route turns to the east, with both directions using University Drive. The route passes San Marcos City Park and crosses the [[San Marcos River]], and passes through the eastern part of the [[Texas State University]] campus as [[Aquarena Springs]] Drive. Loop 82 then reaches its northern terminus at Interstate 35 Exit #206.<ref name="Loop 82"/><ref name="Mapbook 1739">{{Texas Mapbook|year=2018|page=1739|accessdate=July 14, 2021}}</ref>

==History==
Loop 82 was first designated on December 18, 1939, connecting with [[U.S. Route 81 in Texas|US&nbsp;81]] at both ends. The route description indicates that Loop 82 followed Waller, Colorado, Austin, and Hopkins Streets, the last of which is now signed as RM 12. After the decommissioning of US 81 south of [[Fort Worth, Texas|Fort Worth]], the designation was officially amended by [[TxDOT]] in 1992 to indicate the current endpoints at IH 35.<ref name="Loop 82"/>
