Provincial Road 218 (PR 218) is a provincial road in the Eastman Region of southeastern Manitoba, Canada. It connects the community of Ridgeville with the town of St. Malo.

Route description

PR 209 begins at Provincial Trunk Highway 59 in St. Malo and runs in a generally southward direction for 35km (22miles). It turns west approximately 3km (02miles) north of Canada–United States border and heads west for 10km (10miles) before ending at PR 200 near Emerson.[1]

Most of PR 218 is paved, except for the southernmost part between Ridgeville and PR 200, which is a gravel road. This southern section was not originally part of PR 218; it was added in 1992 to replace the partly-decommissioned PR 209.[2]
