Provincial Road 425 (PR 425) is a short 6.0-kilometre-long (3.7 mi) east–west highway in the Winnipeg Metropolitan Region of Manitoba. Being the provincially maintained portion Saskatchewan Avenue, it is mostly a two-lane gravel road, serving as an alternative to PTH 1 between Headingley and Winnipeg, as well as providing another access to the Assiniboia Downs. The highway travels almost entirely through rural farmland, including a rather sudden and sharp switchback at a railway crossing.[1][2][3]

Prior to 2012, when PTH 190 (Centreport Canada Way) was opened, PR 425 could be accessed from PTH 101 (North Perimeter Highway) via an at-grade intersection. Access was closed an overpass was built as part of the interchange between PTH 101 and PTH 190.[4]
