SR-193 begins at an intersection with the northern terminus of the West Davis Corridor and Bernard F. Fisher Highway in West Point. It heads northeast into Syracuse before turning east as a four-lane highway divided by a center turn lane. After crossing SR-108 (2000 West), the route turns southeast, passing north of the Freeport Center, then returns east, crossing over Union Pacific Railroad tracks. SR-193 enters Clearfield as a four-lane undivided highway, crossing SR-126 at Main Street. After intersecting with local roads and passing to the north of a park, the road has an diamond interchange with I-15 at Exit 334. East of the interchange, Hill Air Force Base borders the northern side of the road and the highway enters Layton. The route intersects with the northern terminus of SR-232 at Hill Field Road, which also provides access to the south gate of the air force base. Past the southeastern fringe of the base, the road turns to the southeast before intersecting with Church Street, where SR-193 turns northeast again. The highway approaches the eastern edge of Layton and terminates at a diamond interchange with US-89 at Exit 404.[2]
History
The state legislature created SR-193 in 1935, running northeast from SR-1 (now SR-126) in Layton to SR-49 (now US-89).[3] Despite the original definition, the road was built with federal aid in 1940 and 1941 past Hill Air Force Base, with a western terminus at SR-1 in Clearfield; a separate route - SR-232 - was similarly built in 1940 and numbered in 1941,[4] running north from Layton to SR-193 at Hill Field.[5] The definition of SR-193 was corrected to reflect its new route in 1945.[6]
In 2015, the route was extended west from SR-126 to 2000 West in Syracuse (SR-108). Another extension two years later brought the western terminus to 3000 West. Another extension, which opened on January 6, 2024, brought the western terminus to the West Davis Corridor in West Point.[7]
