State Route 487 was a proposed state route that was never constructed in the north-central part of Arizona. Arizona Department of Transportation was considering adding it to the state highway system in the early 1970s between Flagstaff and State Route 87 near Happy Jack. It did show on state maps during the early 1970s but was never added to the state system and the route disappeared in the mid to late '70s. The road currently exists today as National Forest Road Route 3.

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or route:
“Having behind us the producing masses of this nation and the world, supported by the commercial interests, the labor interests, and the toilers everywhere, we will answer their demand for a gold standard by saying to them: You shall not press down upon the brow of labor this crown of thorns, you shall not crucify mankind upon a cross of gold.”
—Administration in the State of Neva, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
