State Route 387, also known as SR 387, is a state highway in south-central Arizona, United States traveling from State Route 87 west of Coolidge west to Interstate 10, then south to its junction with State Route 84 and State Route 287 in Casa Grande.
SR 387 is a 15.71-mile (25.28 km) highway that connects Casa Grande with I-10 and SR 87. The southern terminus of the highway is located at an intersection with SR 84 and SR 287 in Casa Grande. It heads north through the city from this intersection to the Gila River Indian Reservation before reaching I-10. After the interchange with I-10, the highway intersects SR 187, with SR 387 turning towards the east at the intersection. The highway continues to the east-northeast until it reaches its northern terminus at SR 87. [1] [2]
The route was established between 1946 and 1951, from SR 187 to SR 87 just south of Sun Lakes. Between 1958 and 1961, it was cancelled, and became part of SR 93, a proposed extension of US 93. In 1967, SR 387 was designated from SR 93 to SR 87. It extended south over part of SR 93 on December 17, 1984. [3]
The entire route is in Pinal County.

State Route 79, also known as the Pinal Pioneer Parkway, is a 58.40 mi (93.99 km) long state highway in the U.S. state of Arizona. It serves as the main route through the town of Florence, which is also the county seat of Pinal County. Although the highway has been part of the state highway system since at least 1926, it was not designated as SR 79 until 1992.

SR 79 is also notable for being the location where cowboy western actor Tom Mix died in a car accident on October 14, 1940.

Arizona State Route 93, abbreviated SR 93, was a state highway in Arizona that existed from 1946 to 1991. The route was co-signed with other highways along nearly all of its route from Kingman to the border at Nogales. SR 93 was the original designation for the highway from Kingman to Wickenburg, which was built in 1946. In 1965, the northern terminus of the state route was moved south to an unnamed desert junction with U.S. Route 89 just north of Wickenburg, and the southern terminus of U.S. Route 93 was moved south to the US 89 junction. The Arizona Highway Department sought U.S. Highway status for SR 93 across the rest of the state, but the proposal was never granted by AASHTO. On December 17, 1984, the SR 93 designation was removed south of the Grand Avenue/Van Buren Street/7th Avenue intersection in Phoenix. The route was completely decommissioned in 1991.

While most of US 93 is a four-lane divided highway, sections of the highway between Wickenburg and I-40 are still narrow two-lane roads, gradually being upgraded to match the rest of the route. As part of a proposal by municipal leaders in Nevada and Arizona, the highway could be replaced by Interstate 11 (I-11).
