Route description
editSR 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]

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]
