Provincial Road 214 (PR 214), also called Milner Ridge Road, is a short provincial road in the province of Manitoba, Canada. It runs through the Agassiz Provincial Forest from PTH 44 at Seddons Corner (east of Beausejour) to PTH 11.[1]
PR 214 provides access to the Milner Ridge Correction Facility, a medium and minimum-security prison operated by the Manitoba Department of Justice. The prison is located on the former CFS Beausejour site, which was a NORAD surveillance base.[2] PR 214 also serves as a shortcut for those travelling between Beausejour and Lac Du Bonnet via PTH 44 and PTH 11.
Route History
[edit]PR 214 was originally part of PTH 11 before its current configuration was completed and opened to traffic in 1955.[3]
