Route description
editPR 225 begins in the Rural Municipality of St. Andrews at a junction with PTH 8 (Veterans Memorial Highway) in the locality of Melnice, directly beside of the St. Williams Cemetery. It heads due east through rural farmland and countryside for the next few kilometres, crossing PTH 9 and entering a residential area. The highway enters the village of Dunnottar, travelling through more residential areas before coming to an end at an intersection with PR 232 (Gimli Road) in the Whytewold neighbourhood directly beside a railroad crossing, just 0.4 kilometres (0.25 mi) from the shores of Lake Winnipeg. The entire length of Provincial Road 225 is a paved, two-lane highway.[2]
