Manitoba Provincial Highway 16
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Manitoba Provincial Trunk Highway 16 (PTH 16) is a provincial highway in the Canadian province of Manitoba. It is the Manitoba section of the Yellowhead Highway, and also the Trans-Canada Highway Yellowhead section. The main purpose of this highway is to connect Winnipeg with other Canadian cities such as Edmonton. The highway runs from Bloom at an intersection with PTH 1 near Portage la Prairie to the Saskatchewan border where it connects to Saskatchewan Highway 16.
Until the 1970s, the route was numbered 4, but renumbered PTH 16 to make all of the Yellowhead Highway numbered 16 across all four provinces of western Canada.
The highway is two lanes through Manitoba, with some four lane and divided sections around towns such as Minnedosa.
