Saskatchewan Highway 903

Provincial Road 903 begins at Highway 55 in Meadow Lake No. 588, east of the town of Meadow Lake, and heads north 179 km (111 mi) to Upper Cumins Lake. Along the way, it intersects Provincial Road 941, Provincial Road 904, and Provincial Road 965 (at Cole Bay, on the south side of Canoe Lake). PR Road 903 provides access to Waterhen Lake regional park, and Indian Reserve IR 130.

PR 904, as well as the part of PR 903 north of PR 904, was once Highway 104, a northerly extension of Highway 4.^[1]

In the northern part of the Canadian province of Saskatchewan, Saskatchewan Highways and Transportation maintains a network of "provincial roads" numbered in the 900s - as opposed to the "provincial highways" with numbers under 400 - that provide access to rural communities. These are mostly located outside the rural municipalities of southern Saskatchewan, in which most roads - including the "grid roads" numbered from 600 to 799 - are locally maintained.
