State Route 283 (SR 283) is a 14.86-mile-long (23.91 km) state highway serving rural Grant County in the U.S. state of Washington. The highway travels northeast from SR 281 at its interchange with Interstate 90 (I-90) near George to SR 28 near Ephrata. SR 283 was created during the 1964 highway renumbering as the successor to a branch of Primary State Highway 7 (PSH 7), codified in 1949 and built in the 1950s.
SR 283 begins at an intersection with SR 281 at its interchange with I-90 northeast of George. The two-lane highway travels due northeast through farmland in rural Grant County, passing Grigg Farm Airport and crossing over the Winchester Wasteway, before ending at an intersection with SR 28 southwest of Ephrata.
