Provincial Road 321 (PR 321) is a 31.9-kilometre-long (19.8 mi) east–west highway in the Winnipeg Capital Region of Manitoba, Canada. It connects the towns of Grosse Isle and Stony Mountain with Parkdale on the north side of Winnipeg.

Route description

[edit]

PR 321 begins in Grosse Isle at an intersection with PTH 6 (Northern Woods and Water Route) along the border between the Rural Municipality of Rosser and the Rural Municipality of Rockwood. It heads east through the centre of town, crossing the Prairie Dog Central Railway before having a junction with PR 322 (Road 1E), where the pavement turns to gravel. Leaving Grosse Isle behind, it continues east through rural farmland for several kilometres along Road 72N, crossing a small creek and PR 236. The highway makes a sharp left onto Summit Road for a short distance before making a sharp right onto Road 73N, fully entering the Rural Municipality of Rockwood. The highway joins a concurrency with PTH 7 along the outskirts of Stony Mountain, the two heading south as a four-lane divided highway for a few kilometers. PR 321 splits off and heads along the border with the Rural Municipality of Rosser once more along Fourth Base Line Road for a few kilometres through farmland to enter the Rural Municipality of West St. Paul as Rushman Road, becoming paved as it joins a short concurrency with PR 220 (Blackdale Road). Leaving PR 220 behind along Miller Road, PR 321 travels through rural areas for a few kilometres before coming to an end just south of Parkdale at an intersection with PTH 8 (McPhillips Street).[1][2][3]
