Route Description
State Route 904 (SR 904) begins at a diamond interchange with Interstate 90 (I-90), concurrent with U.S. Route 395 (US 395) in Tyler. Traveling northeast over an unnamed creek to Babb, the highway becomes parallel with a rail line owned by BNSF Railway and used by Amtrak's Empire Builder route from Portland, Oregon to Spokane. The BNSF line is paralleled by a Union Pacific rail line while the roadway and railways enter Cheney. Within Cheney, the road is named First Street and passes Eastern Washington University. SR 904 turns north, now parallel to the Eastern Washington Gateway Railroad, at an intersection with the Cheney–Spokane Road, which was the busiest intersection on the highway, with an estimated daily average of 13,000 motorists in 2007. After the intersection, the road turns northwest to exit Cheney and intersect the old alignment of Primary State Highway 11 (PSH 11). Shortly afterwards, the roadway enters Four Lakes, passing Meadow Lake and leaving the Eastern Washington Gateway Railroad before ending at a trumpet interchange with I-90 and US 395.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“In the mountains the shortest route is from peak to peak, but for that you must have long legs. Aphorisms should be peaks: and those to whom they are spoken should be big and tall of stature.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“God damnit, why must all those journalists be such sticklers for detail? Why, they’d hold you to an accurate description of the first time you ever made love, expecting you to remember the color of the room and the shape of the windows.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
