Route 382, also known as Long Island Tickle Road, is a highway in the central portion of Newfoundland in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador, branching off Route 380 (Beothuck Trail) in the town of Pilley's Island.[1] The route is the only provincial route with no communities prevalent – it is designed as an access to the Lushes Bight–Beaumont–Beaumont North (Long Island) ferry.[2] [3] [4] The maximum speed limit for much of Route 382 is 60 km/h, but is reduced to 30 km/h when approaching the ferry.
