Provincial Trunk Highway 50 (PTH 50) is a provincial highway in the south-central region of the Canadian province of Manitoba. It runs from PTH 16 to PTH 5 and PR 361 in the village of McCreary.
Like PTH 5 and PTH 20, PTH 50 does not run its entire length in one direction. The highway is designated as a north-south highway between PTH 16 and the hamlet of Silver Ridge, where it meets PR 278. From Silver Ridge to McCreary, the highway's designation changes to east-west. Between the Yellowhead Highway and Silver Ridge, PTH 50 is known as Kinosota Road.
PTH 50 provides access to the western shore of Lake Manitoba. The speed limit is 100 km/h (60 mph).
PTH 50 begins in the Rural Municipality of WestLake - Gladstone at an intersection with PTH 16 (Yellowhead Highway) 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) west of Westbourne, just north of the banks of the Whitemud River and the Hutterite Bloomfield Colony. It heads north, immediately crossing a railroad line and traveling through rural farmland for several kilometers, paralleling the western coastline of Lake Manitoba as it passes the Lakeland community to enter the town of Langruth. Traveling straight through town along Main Street, it has an intersection with PR 265 before leaving Langruth and winding its way north into the Rural Municipality of Alonsa.
Still paralleling the coastline of Lake Manitoba, PTH 50 travels through the Sandy Bay First Nation, having an intersection with the main access road to the First Nations' townsite (Main Road), before passing through the town of Amaranth. Heading straight through the center of town, it has an intersection with PR 261 (Broadway Road) before leaving Amaranth and winding its way past Harcus and Leifur for several kilometers to the community of Silver Ridge, where PTH 50 makes a sharp left turn to the east at an intersection with PR 278, where it turns away from Lake Manitoba.
Between this intersection and it southern terminus at the Yellowhead Highway, PTH 50 is known as Kinosota Road.
The highway passes through the town of Alonsa prior to going through a switchback and entering the Municipality of McCreary. Traveling through rural areas for several kilometers, PTH 50 enters the town of McCreary, passing through neighborhoods as it crosses a railroad line to travel through downtown. It passes through more neighborhoods before coming to an end at an intersection with PTH 5 (Parks Route), with the road continuing west as PR 361. [1] [2] [3]
The entire length of Manitoba Highway 50 is a rural, paved, two-lane highway.
PTH 50 first appeared on the 1953 Manitoba Highway Map. [4]
When it was first added, PTH 50 was an east-west route connecting PTH 5 at McCreary to Silver Ridge. The highway's north-south segment was added in 1956. [5]
