Manitoba Provincial Road 248

Provincial Road 248 is a north-south provincial road in the Pembina Valley and Central Plains regions of the Canadian province of Manitoba.
It runs from PTH 6 southward, crossing the Assiniboine River near PTH 26, where it ends, to the Trans-Canada Highway (PTH 1) at Elie. The junction of PTH 1 and PR 248 is one of only two signal-controlled intersections on the Trans-Canada Highway between Headingley and Brandon. From Elie, PR 248 continues southward, intersecting PTH 2 at Fannystelle, and ending at PR 305.
PR 248 is mostly a paved, two-lane road, except for the southernmost portion between PTH 2 and PR 305.

History

Prior to 1992, PR 248 extended further south for an additional through the Rural Municipalities of Dufferin, Roland, and Rhineland, via a short concurrency with PR 305, crossing PTH 3 near Homewood, a short concurrency with PTH 23 between Myrtle and Kane, and using the entire length of what is now PR 306 through Plum Coulee to meet its southern terminus at PR 243, just north of the United States border.
