Route Description
State Road 794 begins at the intersection of Yamato Road and Military Trail (Palm Beach County Road 809) in the country club neighborhoods of Boca Raton. The highway heads eastward as the eight-lane arterial boulevard. State Road 794 continues through the country clubs, passing to the south of Broken Sound Golf Course and to the north of the local residential developments. After the intersection of Old Course Way, the highway expands from four lanes to six, and while approaching Broken Sound Boulevard, expands to eight lanes. Broken Sound Boulevard parallels Yamato Road for a distance to the north, while the residential development becomes commercial. From here, the road turns to the northwest, passing the Boca Raton Tri-Rail station.
After crossing a riverbank, State Road 794 continues eastward as an eight-lane arterial, which crosses the Tri-Rail line after intersecting with ramps to Interstate 95 southbound. The highway continues eastward as a six-lane arterial into the partial cloverleaf interchange, crossing under the interstate and entering a densely populated part of Boca Raton. The road becomes surrounded by a mix of commercial and residential developments before crossing a local freight railroad and State Road 811 (the Dixie Highway). Continuing eastward, State Road 794 goes for a short distance further into Boca Raton, ending at an intersection with U.S. Route 1 (and unsigned State Road 5).

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“By whatever means it is accomplished, the prime business of a play is to arouse the passions of its audience so that by the route of passion may be opened up new relationships between a man and men, and between men and Man. Drama is akin to the other inventions of man in that it ought to help us to know more, and not merely to spend our feelings.”
—Arthur Miller (b. 1915)
“He hath achieved a maid
That paragons description and wild fame;
One that excels the quirks of blazoning pens.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
