Provincial Trunk Highway 22 (PTH 22) is a very short north-south provincial highway in the Canadian province of Manitoba. It runs from PTH 23 near Elgin to PTH 2 and PR 250 in Souris. This highway is the main access road to the renowned Souris Swinging Bridge.[1]
History
Prior to 1953, Highway 22 was the designation of the route connecting the US border south of Melita to Highway 1 in Virden. In 1953, the government re-designated the highway as PTH 83 in order to match U.S. Route 83.[2]
After the original Highway 22 was redesignated as PTH 83, it was moved to a route connecting Highway 1 near Beausejour to Grand Beach, which is now PTH 12 and PTH 59, between 1953 and 1955.[3] The highway was extended to Victoria Beach along what is now PTH 59 in 1956. After the highway was extended, a small stretch of Highway 22 to Grand Beach was redesignated as Highway 22A.[4] The route kept this designation until 1959, when PTH 12 was extended north, replacing Highway 22. As well, the former section of Highway 22A was redesignated as Highway 12G. A small section of the former Highway 22 south of Victoria Beach was redesignated as Highway 12V as Highway 12 turned east to meet Highway 11 at Pine Falls.[5]
PTH 22 was designated to its current route in 1960.[6]
