Route description
Looking southeast along Hanson Street, across I‑80 Bus./US 95, at the western terminus of SR 787, June 2014
Looking northwest along Hanson Street from the eastern terminus of SR 787, with Winnemucca Mountain in the distance, June 2014

SR 787 begins at an intersection with West Winnemucca Drive (I‑80 Bus./US 95). (Hanson Street continues northwest a block before ending at the southwestern end of West 2nd Street. West Winnemucca Boulevard [I‑80 Bus./US 95] continues southwest to an interchange with Interstate 80 [I‑80] and northwest to both a junction with State Route 289 and then another interchange with I‑80.) From its western terminus, SR 787 heads southeast as a three lane road (with a center turn lane) through commercial area for the entire length of the route.

After crossing West 4th Street, SR 787 connects with the southwest end of West 5th Street and then crosses Nixon Street and West 6th Street. The route then traverses a viaduct (that passes over the Union Pacific Railroad tracks) before reaching its eastern terminus at an intersection with Grass Valley Road (SR 294)/West Haskell Street. (From the southern terminus of SR 787, Hanson Street continues easterly before ending at an intersection with South Highland Drive and Water Canyon Road. West Haskell Street heads northeast, running parallel with the southwest side of the railroad tracks, to East Winnemucca Boulevard [I‑80 Bus./SR 794], after which East Haskell Street becomes Fairgrounds Road. Grass Valley Road [SR 294] heads southwest [leaving Winnemucca] to point about 1.75 miles [2.82 km] east-northeast of the Winnemucca Municipal Airport. From that point Grass Valley Road heads southerly through the Grass Valley, passing the community of Grass Valley, and on to the southern part of Pleasant Valley. However, SR 294 terminates at the Pershing County line, at the intersection of Grass Valley Road with Power Line Road/Muddy Road, about 8 miles [13 km] south of Winnemucca.)
