Provincial Trunk Highway 67 (PTH 67) is a short provincial highway in the Canadian province of Manitoba. It runs as an east-west route just north of Winnipeg city limits between PTH 6 near the village of Warren to PTH 9 at the gate to Lower Fort Garry.

PTH 67 is the main highway through the town of Stonewall. The speed limit is 100 km/h (60 mph).

History

PTH 67 first appeared on the 1963 Manitoba Highway Map.[1] Originally, it was a very short connector highway spanning 21 kilometres (13 mi) through Stonewall between PTH 6 and PTH 7. Between PTH 7 and PTH 9, the highway was known as PR 223 after the provincial government implemented it Secondary Highway system in 1966.[2]

PTH 67 was extended on to PR 223 (which was decommissioned in its entirety) in 1983.[3]
