Route description

PTH 9A begins in the Rural Municipality of St. Andrews in the hamlet of Old England at an intersection with PTH 9 (Main Street / Selkirk Bypass). The road heads northeast, paralleling the western banks of the Red River as a 4-lane divided highway to travel through the community before entering the city of Selkirk as it passes by a steel mill. It travels through neighborhoods and a business district before entering downtown, having an intersection with PR 204 (Eaton Avenue) before making a left onto 2-lane Manitoba Avenue, with Main Street continuing north as PR 320. PTH 9A leaves downtown and travels through more neighborhoods, where it makes a right onto Easton Drive, passing by a hospital as it enters a more rural area before coming to an end at an intersection between PTH 9 and PTH 4 (Selkirk Bypass), with the road continuing north as PTH 9 northbound.[1]
