# Manitoba Provincial Road 245

Provincial Road 245 (PR 245) is a 90.2-kilometre-long (56.0 mi) east-west highway in the Pembina Valley and Central Plains regions of Manitoba, Canada. It connects the communities of Bruxelles, Notre Dame de Lourdes, Roseisle, and Graysville with the town of Carman. PR 245 also provides access to Stephenfield Provincial Park.

## Route description

PR 245 begins as a gravel road in the Rural Municipality of Argyle at an intersection with PR 342 just south of the town of Cypress River. It enters the Municipality of Lorne and heads due east through rural farmland for several kilometres, crossing the Cypress River and have a junction with PR 532 before travelling through the hamlet of Bruxelles along Main Street, where it goes through a couple of sharp curves and becomes paved. The highway heads east, travelling past Lake Eleven before becoming concurrent (overlapped) with PTH 34 northbound for roughly 5 kilometres (3.1 mi). PR 245 splits off unpaved once more and heads east along the border with the Rural Municipality of Victoria, having an intersection with PR 449, before travelling along the border with the Rural Municipality of Norfolk Treherne, having a short concurrency with PR 242 at Pinkerton Lakes where it becomes paved again.
PR 245 fully re-enters the Municipality of Lorne as it enters the town of Notre Dame de Lourdes, travelling straight through downtown along Notre Dame Avenue before joining PR 244, going through a switchback as they head south to leave town, with PR 245 splitting off and heading east near Cardinal. The highway goes through a few curves as it enters the Rural Municipality of Dufferin, travelling through Roseisle (where it has a short concurrency with PR 240) before passing by Stephenfield Provincial Park. Passing through the hamlet of Stephenfield, it has a junction with PR 338 before crossing the Boyne River and passing through Graysville. PR 245 winds its way back and forth for the next several kilometres to enter the town of Carman, travelling past neighbourhoods and golf courses as it crosses the Boyne River three more times to enter downtown along 4th Avenue SW, coming to an end at an intersection between PTH 3 and PTH 13 (Main Street S / 4th Avenue SE). The entire length of Provincial Road 245 is a two-lane highway.
