Provincial Road 216 (PR 216) is a provincial road in the Canadian province of Manitoba. The north-south road lies mostly within the Rural Municipality of Hanover, beginning at PR 311 near New Bothwell and ending at PTH 59 near Rosa. PR 216 has a one-kilometre concurrency with PTH 52, between New Bothwell and Kleefeld, and a five-kilometre concurrency with Provincial Road 205 through Grunthal.
PR 216 forms the Main Streets for the communities of New Bothwell, Kleefeld, and Grunthal.[1]
Route description
PR 216 begins in the Rural Municipality of Emerson-Franklin at a junction with PTH 59 just northwest of the community of Rosa. The highway immediately enters into the Rural Municipality of De Salaberry, crossing the Rat River and passing through a mix of rural farmland and wooded areas for the next several kilometres, where it has an intersection with PR 403. It now crosses into the Rural Municipality of Hanover, entering the town of Grunthal at a junction with PR 205, with which it becomes concurrent with. The two overlapped highways head north through neighbourhoods along Froese Road before making a sharp left and going through downtown along Main Street. The pair then leave downtown and curve northward again, leaving Grunthal before PR 205 splits off and heads west.
PR 216 continues north to pass by Hochstadt shortly before travelling straight through the centre of Kleefeld along Main Street. Shortly thereafter, it has a short concurrency with PTH 52 before passing through the town of New Bothwell along Main Street and coming to an end at a junction with PR 311.[2]
The entire length of Provincial Road 216 is a rural, paved, two-lane highway.[3]
