Manitoba Highway 24
highway in Manitoba
Provincial Trunk Highway 24 (PTH 24) is a provincial highway in the Canadian province of Manitoba. It is an east–west route that runs from PTH 83 near Miniota, east through Oak River and Rapid City to the junction of PTH 10 and PR 262 between Brandon and Minnedosa.
Route description
PTH 24 begins in the Rural Municipality of Prairie View at a junction with PTH 83 on the south side of Miniota. The highway heads east for the next several kilometers, crossing a small stream and a railroad line as it travels through the community of Arrow River, having an intersection with PR 474 shortly thereafter. It travels along the south side of Crandall, where it has a junction with PR 264, before crossing into the Rural Municipality of Hamiota.
PTH 24 travels past several small lakes and ponds on its way to Parks Corner, where it crosses PTH 21 just a few kilometers south of the town of Hamiota. The highway now enters the Rural Municipality of Oakview and almost immediately travels through the town Oak River, where it runs concurrent (overlapped) with PR 354 and crosses the Oak River. It continues due east for several kilometers, traveling through rural farmland, where it has an intersection with PR 250, before suddenly curving southward as it becomes concurrent with PR 270 and enters Rapid City. The highway passes through a neighborhood and crosses a bridge over the Little Saskatchewan River, with PTH 24 splitting off shortly thereafter and following 2nd Avenue eastward along the north side of downtown. PTH 24 passes through several more neighborhoods before leaving Rapid City and heading east for a few kilometers, coming to an end at an intersection with PTH 10 (John Bracken Highway) at Tremaine, with the road continuing east as PR 262.

Why this record matters
The phrase “highway in Manitoba” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 17, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q6750036. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
