Provincial Road 457 (PR 457) is a provincial road in the Westman Region of the Canadian province of Manitoba. It connects the city of Brandon with Chater and Cottonwoods.

Route description

[edit]

Provincial Road 457 is an east-west route and runs from PR 340 in Cottonwoods to its terminus at PTH 1A (1st Street North) in Brandon.[1][2]

PR 457, along with PR 340, serves as the main connector route between Brandon and CFB Shilo. Because of this, and that it travels at a lower elevation than the Trans-Canada Highway, the road is known locally as the "Low Road to Shilo".

PR 457 is a paved road for its entire length. The speed limit along this road is 90 kilometres per hour (56 mph).
