Alberta Provincial Highway No. 54,[2] commonly referred to as Highway 54, is an east–west highway located in central Alberta. It is 70 kilometres (43 mi) in length, starting at Highway 22 (Cowboy Trail), 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) west of the Village of Caroline, and ending at exit 365 of Highway 2 (Queen Elizabeth II Highway) at the south end of the Town of Innisfail.[3][4]
