Provincial Road 592 (PR 592) is a 26.3-kilometre-long (16.3 mi) north–south highway in the Parkland Region of Manitoba, Canada. It connects the town of Inglis with the hamlets of Lennard, Shell Valley, and the town of Roblin.
Route description
[edit]PR 592 begins in the Rural Municipality of Riding Mountain West at an intersection with PR 366 in Inglis on the eastern edge of town. It heads north as paved, two-lane highway for 1.0 kilometre (0.62 mi) before transitioning to gravel after crossing a small creek via a culvert. The highway travels through rural farmland for the next several kilometres as it passes through the hamlets of Lennard and Shell Valley. Entering the Municipality of Roblin, PR 592 traverses a switchback before coming to an end shortly thereafter at an intersection with PR 583 just southwest of the town of Roblin. The highway runs parallel to the east bank of the Shell River for its entire length.[1][2]
History
[edit]In November 2023, a 55 year old Roblin man passed away while driving his combine along PR 592 near Road 140N, due to losing control after driving downhill on the iced over roadway and rolling over.[3]

Prior to 1992, what is now PR 592 was a northerly extension of a then much longer PR 478, while the original PR 592 designation was applied to what is now a section of PR 593 between PR 484 and Deepdale, as well as it continued north along Road 169W for several kilometres before ending at a junction with PTH 83 south of Silverwood. This highway lies entirely within what is now the Municipality of Roblin.[4][5]
