Saskatchewan Highway 19 is a provincial highway in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. The highway runs from Highway 15 near Hawarden south to Highway 18 east of Mankota and provides access to several communities, lakes, beaches, historical sites and buildings, and parks. It is about 269 kilometres (167 mi) long.[1]
Highway 19 was a case study for the Saskatchewan Centre for Excellence in Transportation and Infrastructure (SCETI). SCETI was working on further defining the SHELL curves for the low-lying Sub base sections. Due to the high clay content and the poor application of the culvert systems in the area, this case study will be able to address the issues currently ailing the road. The study concluded in the fall on 2012.
Between 2017 and 2021 numerous repairs have been made between Highway 15 to Elbow. This section sees the most road erosion due to seasonal weather changes. With better maintenance efforts in 2019–2020, safe travel has been greatly improved for motorists.
