Manitoba Provincial Road 351 (PR 351) is an east-west provincial road in the south-central section of the Canadian province of Manitoba.
Route description[edit]
PR 351 is a short east-west highway that begins and ends at the Trans-Canada Highway. The western terminus is located near the unincorporated community of Hughes, while the eastern terminus is just west of Sidney. PR 351 provides direct east-west access to the town of Carberry, where it is known as 1st Avenue within the town limits.
PR 351 is paved for its entire length.
History[edit]
PR 351 was part of the original Highway 1 prior to 1958.[1]
In 1962, Highway 1 became part of the Trans-Canada Highway. The current configuration of Highway 1 began construction in 1957 and was opened to traffic the following year, putting the new route 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) north of Carberry.[2] The route was given its current designation when the Manitoba government implemented its secondary highway system in 1966.
