Highway 2 is a

La Ronge, where it becomes Highway 102
.

The highway started as a graded road in the 1920s which followed the grid lines of the early survey system and was maintained by early homesteaders of each rural municipality. Paving projects of the 1950s created all weather roads. Technological advances have paved the way for cost-effective methods of improvements to highway surfaces to meet the wear and tear of increased tourist and commercial highway traffic. The stretch of Highway 2 from Moose Jaw to Prince Albert was designated in 2005 as Veterans Memorial Highway. The designation coincided with Veterans Week 2005.[3] The CanAm Highway[4] comprises Saskatchewan Highways 35, 39, 6, 3, and 2.[5]

Route description

Highway 11 prior to intersection with Highway 2

Saskatchewan Highway 2 departs the Canada–United States border in a northerly direction. Montana Highway 24 continues in a southerly direction in the United States. The United States border crossing is in Opheim, Montana and the Canadian is at West Poplar River.[6] Nearby there are campgrounds available, and a point of information regarding the crossing of Poplar River.

Rockglen is located at km 49, and Highway 2 now extends in a northerly direction again. Rockglen and Assiniboia are the two largest centres between the border and the city of Moose Jaw.[21] This geographical region of Highway 2 from Rockglen to Assiniboia has been upgraded to a Class 3 highway as it carries approximately 800 vehicles per day counted to the south of Assiniboia.[13][16] Therefore, the surface type before Assiniboia is a granular road surface which is a structural pavement with a hot mix surface coating. The highway type, surface, maintenance and construction projects are looked after by the SHS South Central Traffic Planning Committee.[12][15] Fife Lake is located to the north east of the highway.[1] The St. Victor Petroglyph Historic Park is located just to the west of Highway 2 by 10.4 kilometres (6.5 mi). These unique petroglyph features carved into the sandstone are slowly disappearing.[22][23]

Assiniboia approach

At km 103 is the town of Assiniboia where 1,260 vpd results in the highway designated as an

Briercrest.[1]

Veteran's Memorial Highway

Qu'Appelle Valley across Buffalo Pound Lake
.

The home of the

History of Transportation Western Development Museum.[31] are major sites of interest of this city.[32]

The

Arm River Recreation Site is south of Chamberlain with an historical marker. To the west of the highway are afforded views of the Arm River Valley. At km 275, the highway takes a sharp turn to continue north as it leaves the Highway 11 concurrency.[1] After the concurrency, Highway 2 is a class 3 AC primary weight highway until Watrous.[13][14][15][16] The junction of Highway 733 in 7.7 kilometres (4.8 mi) provides access to Last Mountain Lake travelling east. Holdfast is accessed at the Highway 732 junction. Penzance is east of the highway at km 305; Liberty is a small community at km 314.[1] Located near Stalwart is the Stalwart National Wildlife Area, a wetlands region.[35] Watertown (1903–1910) provides easy access to Etter's Beach on Last Mountain Lake. The settlers of Watertown established a post office named Harkness Post Office, Assiniboia, North-West Territories. With the arrival of the rail, the village became known as Imperial. The town of Imperial is the largest centre west of Last Mountain Lake with a population around 300 and an AADT of close to 650 vpd.[16][21][36] The village of Simpson is also along the highway which runs parallel to Last Mountain Lake. There are several roadside turnouts to access Last Mountain Lake from Highway 2.[1] The Last Mountain Lake Bird Sanctuary was the first bird sanctuary in North America.[37] Highway 15 provides access to Nokomis to the east, and Kenaston to the west.[7]

Tuxford signage

The small hamlet of Amazon is located before Watrous. Watrous is a tourist destination due to its proximity to Manitou Beach and the endorheic Little Manitou Lake. Watrous, in the Land of Living Waters, is a tourist destination due to its proximity to Manitou Beach, home of the world-famous Mineral Spa and Danceland dance hall (known as the "Home of the World Famous Dance Floor Built on Horsehair").[38][39] The AADT near this tourist town of 1,800 people raises to about 1,250 vpd which ranks it as a class 2 highway.[16][21] Highway 2 continues in a north-west direction to circumnavigate around Little Manitou until it gets to the Young and the junction of Highway 670.[1] Young and Zelma were two communities that were part of the alphabet railway of the Canadian National Railway (CNR).[40] The Yellowhead Highway is at km 419. Colonsay is located to the west, and Plunkett to the east.[1] Colonsay is the location of one of several potash mines in Saskatchewan, a major employer of the region. Potash evaporites were laid down during the geological formation of the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin.[41] The SHS North Central Transportation Planning Committee tends to highway maintenance and construction decisions north of the Yellowhead highway.[12] Highway 2 from the Yellowhead through to Prince Albert is a class 2 primary weight AC highway.[13][14][15][33] Over 1,000 vehicles travel Highway 2 between Watrous and Meacham, and of these less than 100 of them are trucks. The majority of commercial trucks near the Highway 2 and 5 intersection travel Highway 5. The AADT after the intersection is under 350 vpd.[16]

Highway 5 provides access to the city of

campground, and regional park at Wakaw Lake. The community considered a proposal to construct a canal between the lake and the town to be developed into a marina - resort - tourism area.[49] Traffic around this tourist town of 864 increases between 650 and 1050 vpd.[16]

Two way highway ends near Chamberlain

At the junction of

Metis rights activist Louis Riel prior to his subsequent trial and death in 1885.[52] St. Louis was recently the site of the discovery[53] of a large archaeological site[54] of aboriginal artifacts.[55]

Arm River Rest Area

The South Saskatchewan River was originally crossed at this point via the St. Louis Bridge, but the highway now bypasses the village several kilometres to the east via a newly constructed bridge. Traffic around St. Louis averaged about 1,500 and escalates to 6,000 after the junction with Highway 11 (the Louis Riel Trail), which occurs 4 km south of Prince Albert at km 553.[16]

CanAm Highway

Highway 791 east and Highway 263 west. Highway 263 provides access to the Prince Albert National Park.[1]

Junction 42 Chamberlain ahead Saskatchewan Highway 2 (north); Central Butte turn left, (West) Saskatchewan Highway 42 Road Signage.

This ecoregion is a part of the mid-boreal upland. At km 634, Highway 2 meets with Highway 264 which provides access to Waskesiu Lake in the Prince Albert National Park. At km 648 there is an intersection with Highway 969, another access to the Park westerly, and eastern access to Montreal Lake 106 Indian Reserve. There are fewer roads in the southern boreal forest. Highway 2 makes the next highway connection at km 680 with Highway 916.[1]

There are over 100,000 lakes across Saskatchewan, with the main lake region being north of the tree line in the

La Ronge and the junction with Highway 102.[1]

History

From 1876, the South Saskatchewan river crossing at St. Louis was via ferry. In 1912, the railway built a rail bridge across the river, and in 1928, the vehicle lanes were added.[60] After 1907, the highway was constructed south of Chamberlain and reached Buffalo Pound. At this time two horse scrapers and walking plows were the implements of road construction technology. This highway received an improvement in 1926 which then used an elevating grader, 16 horses and a dump wagon.[61]

The Saskatchewan Highway Act was established in 1922, in compliance with the 1919 Canadian highway act. At the initial stages of the Saskatchewan Highway Act, 10 miles (16 km) of highway were gravel and the rest were earth roads. The

railway switch by the elevators.[65] Travel along the Provincial Highway 5 before the 1940s would have been traveling on the square following the township road allowances, barbed wire fencing and rail lines. As the surveyed township roads were the easiest to travel, the first highway was designed on 90-degree, right-angle corners as the distance traversed the prairie along range roads and township roads.[66]

The two industrial revolutions first and second combined with advancements made during the war years resulted in the largest impetus in highway construction of all weather roads following World War II.[67] The creation of the highway south of Chamberlain to Moose Jaw was completed in 1953. Paving projects followed within a short time period.[61] In 1955 parts of Highway 2 were already paved; Between Vantage and Tuxford, either side of Moose Jaw; north of Watrous along the Little Manitou Lake shoreline; and north of the junction with Highway 27 to Montreal Lake, either side of Prince Albert.[68] In 1956 a North-South International Highway proposal regarding a highway between El Paso, Texas, and LaRonge via Wakaw was discussed. The CanAm Highway northern segment into La Ronge finished construction in 1977; however, the CanAm didn't go through Wakaw, rather it comprised several different routes making the CanAm. Highway 2, which does go through Wakaw, does link to the CanAm highway at Prince Albert when Highway 2 becomes the last portion of the CanAm highway.[69] In 1952, Highway 2 was re-routed; rather than winding its way through the town of Wakaw, the highway's new route went straight along the western limit of town.[69]: 93 

Agriculture is Saskatchewan's main industry and taking grain to elevators was first accomplished by horse and cart, to be replaced around World War I by truck travel. Long haul trucking flourished between 1950 and 1970. Since the 1970s, 17 times the number of grain trucks and 95 percent of goods transported now are hauled by truck across the Saskatchewan.[70]

In 1999, the granular pavement section of Highway 2 south of Watrous was tested with a cold in-place recycling or “CIR” method to rehabilitate highways. This CIR process is a cost-effective method which recycles the top surface of a road. This pulverized material is mixed with asphalt emulsion and spread and compacted back onto the highway surface. This surface is then recovered with a new seal dependent on traffic volume.[71]

In 2001, 6.6 kilometres (4.1 mi) were resurfaced near the Cudworth access road, as well 3.7 kilometres (2.3 mi) km north of the Highway 27 junction. "Highway 2 near Cudworth has seen an increase in truck traffic that is leading to deterioration on this highway...It's important to keep our highways in good driving condition to ensure the safety of the travelling public." -Highways and Transportation Minister Maynard Sonntag.[72] As recently as 2002, this section of Highway 2 was improved 10.4 kilometres (6.5 mi) south of the Yellowhead. At km 398 is access to Zelma.[7] 'Highway 2 has seen an increase in truck traffic, leading to wear and tear on this highway...We are paving a section of this highway as it has deteriorated over the past number of years. Saskatchewan Highways and Transportation is working hard to fix roads across the province to improve driver safety. - " Highways and Transportation Minister Mark Wartman[73]

Veterans Memorial Highway

Veterans Memorial Highway is the official name of Highway 2 between Moose Jaw and Prince Albert.

Moose Jaw.[76]

CanAm Highway

The northern 238.4 kilometres (148.1 mi) of Saskatchewan Highway 2 contribute to the

La Ronge at the Saskatchewan Highway 2 - SK 102 intersection. The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) super corridors connect Mexico, United States, and Canada. The CanAm highway was a concept that began in the 1920s.[77] A stretch of highway between Amazon and Watrous is slated for maintenance between 208 and 2009, as well as the Highway 5 - Highway 2 concurrency which carries about 2,000 vpd on average through the year. Also the 13 kilometres (8 mi) segment between Highways 264 and 969 is a 2008-09 maintenance project.[16][34]
