Route description

Looking southeast along SR 795 from its northtern terminus, June 2014
Looking east across East 2nd Street (and the eastern terminus point of SR 289) at the eastern terminus of SR 795, June 2014

SR 795 begins at a T intersection with East 2nd Street about 1.6 miles (2.6 km) northeast of downtown Winnemucca and immediately northwest of the city limits.[Note 2] (East 2nd Street heads northeast through Weso to end near the south bank of the Humboldt River. East 2nd Street heads southwest as SR 289 to downtown Winnemucca to connect with U.S. Route 95 [US 95].) From its southern terminus, SR 795 heads northwest along Reinhart Lane to cross the Humboldt River.

Just after the river crossing, SR 795 has an intersection with East National Avenue, which heads south-southwest to northwest Winnemucca. (The road continues north-northeast as a dirt road roughly following the course of the river.) SR 795 then curves to a northerly course before turning to head west-northwest and reaching its northern terminus at US 95, about 2.5 miles (4.0 km) north of downtown Winnemucca. (Reinhart Drive continues a bit farther to a T intersection with Sage Heights Drive. US 95 heads south to downtown Winnemucca and north to Oregon and western Idaho.) SR 795, along with SR 289, provides an alternate and more direct connection between northern Humboldt County on US 95 and destinations east on Interstate 80.[1]

History

Prior to becoming a state route in the late 1990s, SR 795 existed as a dirt road maintained by Humboldt County. The route historically served as a shortcut to Winnemucca and was experiencing increasing traffic volumes. The county worked with the Nevada Department of Transportation to bring the road to state highway standards and include it the state highway system.[8] The newly constructed highway opened in early 1999, and was officially approved as SR 795 on May 1, 1999.[9]

Major intersections

The entire route is in Humboldt County.

Notes

  1. Reinhart Lane (SR 795) often has its name spelled on maps as "Rhinehart".[2][3] The United States Postal Service indicates that "Reinhart" is the appropriate spelling.[4] (Reinhart Drive, the road north of Winnemucca, should not be confused with Reinhard Street, a three-block street in north-central Winnemucca, which also connects with SR 289 [East Winnemucca Drive].)
  2. Despite many maps (such as Google Maps,[5] Bing Maps,[6] etc.) showing the southern terminus of SR 795 (its junction with SR 289) within the city limits of Winnemucca, maps produced by the County Assessor's Office of Humboldt County indicate that the city limits actually end at the southeast edge of the East Second Street right-of-way and do not include the road itself (and therefore the southern terminus of SR 795).[7]
