From the intersection, the four-lane divided highway goes a short distance to the northeast then turns directly north for almost its entire length.

From there the highway goes north past major intersections at Lexington Boulevard and Avenue E a distance of 2.5 miles (4.0 km) to the U.S. Route 90 Alternate (US 90 Alt.)

About 0.3 miles (0.5 km) before the highway ends at the I-69/US 59 Southwest Freeway overpass, FM 1092 turns to the northwest.

[2] FM 1092 was originally designated on December 16, 1948, to run from US 59 at Stafford south a distance of about 3.8 miles (6.1 km) to SH 6.

On September 20, 1961, FM 1092 was extended 2.5 miles (4.0 km) from US 59 north to a proposed new US 59 (now dual signed as I-69/US 59) route known as the Southwest Freeway.
