History

In the early 1990s, the Manitoba government decommissioned a number of provincial secondary roads and returned the maintenance of these roads back to the rural municipalities. A large portion of the original PR 466 was included in this decommissioning. Prior to this, PR 466 continued east in concurrence with the Yellowhead Highway for to Franklin Road. From this point, it travelled north through Franklin and terminated at a junction with PR 471. In 1984, PR 466 was extended further north to the unincorporated community of Mountain Road, where it terminated at PR 357. The section of the extension between Mountain Road and PR 265 had previously been designated as PR 562, which was decommissioned and transferred to the new number. This section is now a municipal road. The original length of PR 466 was to PR 471, and after its extension to PR 357.
