Source-derived summary

Route 93, also known as Mount Carmel Road, is a 17.7-kilometre-long (11.0 mi) east–west highway on the Avalon Peninsula of Newfoundland.

Route description

Route 93 begins along the banks of the Colinet River in Colinet at an intersection with Route 91 (Old Placentia Highway). It heads south through neighbourhoods before passing through rural areas for several kilometres. The highway then turns east as it passes through Harricott to cross over some hills to enter Mount Carmel-Mitchells Brook-St. Catherines and pass through the Mount Carmel portion of town. Route 93 turns north to wind its way along the Salmonier Arm of St. Mary's Bay for several kilometres to enter the St. Carthrines portion of town before coming to an end at an intersection with Route 90 (Salmonier Line), where the Salmonier Arm becomes the Salmonier River.

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Newfoundland and Labrador Route 93” as highway in Newfoundland and Labrador. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA practical starting point whose main value is the path it opens into stronger specialist and primary sources. The current 135-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. The account is most persuasive where Newfoundland, Labrador and Route can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as highway in Newfoundland and Labrador. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 26, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q16673650. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.

Critical limits

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.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
