Manitoba Provincial Road 354

Manitoba Provincial Road 354 (PR 354) is a provincial road in the southwestern section of the Canadian province of Manitoba.

Route description
PR 354 begins at PTH 10 and PR 262 at Onanole, and terminates at the Canadian National Railway main line near Bradwardine.

From Onanole, it travels 7 km west before meeting southbound PR 270. From PR 270, PR 354 turns north for 6 km before turning west through the community of Crawford Park. The road then continues west for 5 km before meeting southbound PR 250. The road continues west for another 13 km before turning south at the unincorporated community of Horod. Approximately 5 km south of Horod, the road meets eastbound PR 470. The two roads run in concurrence for 2 km before PR 470 turns west and leaves the concurrence. PR 354 continues south for 8 km to an intersection with PTH 45 at Elphinstone. After leaving Elphinstone, the road continues south for 15 km to meet PTH 16 east of Strathclair. PTH 16 and PR 354 continue in concurrence west for 4 km to Strathclair where PR 354 leaves the concurrence and continues south, travelling 18 km to meet eastbound PR 355. The two roads run in concurrence for 2 km before PR 354 leaves the concurrence and continues south, travelling 12 km to meet PTH 24 east of Oak River. PTH 24 and PR 354 continue in concurrence west for 2 km through Oak River before PR 354 leaves the concurrence just west of the village and continues south, travelling 8 km to its southbound terminus.

The route is gravel for most its length, with a paved section covering the first 5 km from its northern terminus along with the concurrence it shares with PTH 16 and PTH 24.

History
In the early 1990s, the Manitoba government decommissioned a number of provincial secondary roads and returned the maintenance of these roads back to the rural municipalities. A portion of the original PR 354 was included in this decommissioning. However, unlike most provincial roads in which the length was shortened or the route decommissioned altogether, PR 354 was slightly lengthened from its original distance.

Prior to this, PR 354's northern terminus was at Horod with PR 359. The road extended another 4 km past its current southern terminus to meet eastbound PR 259. The two roads continued in a western concurrence for 2 km before turning south, travelling 5 km through Bradwardine before PR 259 turned west and left the concurrence. PR 354 continued south for 15 km to its southbound terminus with PTH 21 near the Sioux Valley Dakota Nation.

After the decommissioning of the original section, PR 354 was rerouted east onto the former PR 359, which was significantly shortened from its original length. The road travelled on this section to meet PR 270.

PR 270 was initially extended on to the section between PR 354's current northern terminus and the current junction between the two roads; it was changed to PR 354 in 1997. This section includes the former PR 263, which was decommissioned in its entirety.

The section between PR 259 and its old southbound terminus was redesignated as PR 564. The section between PR 259 and PR 354's current southern terminus is now a municipal road.

The original length of PR 354 was 113 km.
