Provincial Road 255 (PR 255) is a provincial road in the Westman Region of the Canadian province of Manitoba. The road runs from the border with Saskatchewan west to PR 254, north of Oak Lake Beach. Communities along its route include Ebor, Cromer, Woodnorth, and Scarth. It is about 52.7 kilometres (32.7 mi) long.[1]
Route description
PR 255 begins in the Rural Municipality of Pipestone at the Saskatchewan border, with the road continuing into the Rural Municipality of Maryfield No. 91 as Township Road 92, which connects to Saskatchewan Highway 600 8.2 kilometres (5.1 mi). It heads west through the hamlet of Ebor on its way to Cromer, where it shares a very short concurrency with PR 256 as the pair cross a bridge over Pipestone Creek together. Leaving Cromer, the highway traverses a switchback as it travels along the south side of Woodnorth, where it has a junction with Road 159W (formerly PR 252). After crossing PTH 83 in the Scarth community, PR 255 enters the Rural Municipality of Sifton, traveling along the northern side of Oak Lake before coming to an end at a junction with PR 254 north of Oak Lake Beach. The entire length of PR 255 is a gravel, two-lane highway.[2]
