SR 193 begins at the eastern city limits of Lincoln. The route formerly began at a junction with what was then SR 65 (now Lincoln Boulevard) in Lincoln, and was known as McBean Park Drive (SR 65 has since relocated to a new bypass alignment). The portion of SR 193 within the city of Lincoln was relinquished to the city in February 2011. The city has since been annexing more territory to include increasing areas of residential development, and thus SR 193's western end has been adjusted accordingly.
After leaving the city of Lincoln, SR 193 becomes known as Lincoln Newcastle Highway and enters rural Placer County. A few miles later, SR 193 passes over the tunnel containing Taylor Road before heading east on Taylor Road to an interchange with I-80 in Newcastle.
