Manitoba Provincial Road 205
Provincial Road 205 (PR 205) is a 84.7-kilometre-long (52.6 mi) provincial road in the Canadian province of Manitoba. Spanning the Pembina Valley and Eastman regions in the south, it connects the communities of Sperling, Rosenort, Aubigny, St. Pierre-Jolys, and Grunthal with PTH 75 (Lord Selkirk Highway), while also spanning the Red River. Route descriptionPR 205 begins in the Rural Municipality of Morris at an intersection between PTH 3 (Boundary Commission Trail) and PR 336 in Sperling on the south side of town. The highway quickly leaves the town and heads due east as a gravel road for several kilometres, where it has a short concurrency with PR 332, before making a sharp turn to the south and crossing the Morris River twice. After a few kilometres, it curves due eastward again to enter Rosenort at an intersection with PR 422, where PR 205 becomes paved. PR 205 travels through some neighbourhoods as it crosses the Morris River for the final time, along with its spillway, before travelling through downtown along Main Street. Passing through another small neighbourhood, the highway leaves Rosenort and almost immediately passes through the small community of McTavish, where it junctions with PR 330. PR 205 crosses a railroad line and PTH 75 (Lord Selkirk Highway) before traversing a bridge over the Red River of the North to enter Aubigny, where it has an intersection with PR 246 (St. Mary's Road).[1] Leaving Aubigny, PR 205 heads east for a few more kilometres to enter the Rural Municipality of De Salaberry. Immediately it crosses the Marsh River just shortly before becoming concurrent with PR 200 and heading south. After only 1.7 kilometres (1.1 mi), PR 205 separates and heads east again to cross a railroad line at Carey and the Rat River to enter the village of St-Pierre-Jolys. The highway passes through neighbourhoods along Jolys Avenue W, crossing Joubert Creek before entering downtown and becoming concurrent with PTH 59 (Sabourin Street). The pair head south as a four-lane divided highway for a short distance to cross Joubert Creek once again before narrowing to two lanes and leaving the village. PR 205 leaves PTH 59 and winds its way southeast to enter the Rural Municipality of Hanover and pass through downtown Grunthal along Main Street and Froese Road, while also being concurrent with PR 216. PR 205 continues east through rural farmland for the next several kilometres, travelling past the small community of Sarto before coming to and end at an intersection with PTH 12 (MOM's Way), with the road continuing east as Sarto Road. With the exception of St-Pierre-Jolys, the entire length of PR 205 is a rural two-lane highway.[2][3] [4] Major intersections
