Provincial Trunk Highway 49 is a very short provincial highway in Manitoba. It runs from the Saskatchewan border to PTH 83 three kilometres (1.9 mi) south of Benito.

The highway is less than 1 mile (1.6 km) long (the sign welcoming westbound motorists to Saskatchewan can be seen from PTH 83) and connects with the same numbered highway across the border. Along with PTH 27 and 57, PTH 49 is one of the shortest provincial trunk highways within Manitoba.

The speed limit is 90 km/h (55 mph).

History

Prior to 1947, PTH 49 was part of Manitoba Highway 6, which extended via Benito to Swan River, Dauphin, and Minnedosa.^[13] The section from the highway's current eastern terminus to Roblin was opened to traffic in 1948 and designated as Highway 31 along with the remaining section of highway to Swan River.^[14] This route was redesignated as PTH 83 in 1954.^[15]

The current route between the Saskatchewan border and Highway 31 was redesignated to PTH 49 in 1947.
