History

edit

Prior to 2001, PR 241 continued westward another 24.1 kilometres (15.0 mi) along what is now Lido Plage Road (former PR 424) and PR 424 past Lido Plage and the Trans-Canada to an intersection with PR 248 just south of St. Eustache in the Rural Municipality of Cartier. This was transferred to PR 424 in 2001, truncating PR 241 to its intersection with Lido Plage Road.[2][3] In 2013, the section of Roblin Boulevard between Lido Plage Road and PR 334 in South Headingley, which is now a municipal road, was decommissioned, leaving the short section there is today.[4][5]
