Route description

Provincial Road 482 is a north-south route and runs from the PTH 83 near Inglis to its terminus with PTH 5 and Hwy 10 just east of the Saskatchewan border. [1] The northern terminus also serves as the westbound/eastbound terminuses for both PTH 5 and Hwy 10. The route provides direct access to Lake of the Prairies and Asessippi Provincial Park.

From PTH 83, PR 482 travels in an east-west direction for approximately eight kilometres (5.0 mi) before meeting westbound PR 549. From PR 549, the road turns north and slightly east for five kilometres (3.1 mi) before descending into the Shell Valley and the entrance to Asessippi Provincial Park. PR 482 turns north along the Shellmouth Dam at this point.

After passing the Shellmouth Dam, PR 482 continues north and west, ascending out of the Shell Valley before passing the unincorporated community of Dropmore. The road continues west for a short distance before turning north. From this point, PR 482 travels very close to or along the Manitoba — Saskatchewan border for the rest of the route. Approximately 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) north of Dropmore, PR 482 intersects westbound PR 547, which along with Hwy 381 serves the village of MacNutt. The highway travels for another 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) from PR 547 before descending back into the Shell Valley near Lake of the Prairies to its northern terminus. PR 482 makes a very brief turn into Saskatchewan just south of its northern terminus.

PR 482 is a paved road for its entire length. The speed limit along this road is 90 km/h.

The Northern Woods and Water Route is a 2,400-kilometre (1,500 mi) route through northern British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba in Western Canada. As early as the 1950s, community groups came together to establish a northern travel route; this was proposed as the Northern Yellowhead Transportation Route. The Northern Woods and Water Route Association was established in 1974, and encouraged promotion of the route with the promise of an increase in tourist travel. The route was designated in 1974 and is well signed throughout its component highways. The route starts at Dawson Creek as the Spirit River Highway and ends at the Perimeter of Winnipeg, Manitoba, after running through the northern regions of the western provinces. From west to east, the Northern Woods and Water Route (NWWR) incorporates portions of British Columbia Highway 49; Alberta Highways 49, 2A, 2, & 55; Saskatchewan Highways 55 & 9; Manitoba Provincial Road 283 and Trunk Highways 10, 5, 68 & 6.
