Historical Tertiary Highway 812 Photographs
Left - New rock cut on Hwy 812 (later known as Hwy 502) south of Dryden in 1977. The completion of the Manitou Road (Hwy 812) in 1980 resulted in a brand new
north-south provincial highway link between Hwy 11 and Hwy 17 in Northwestern Ontario. The highway distance between Dryden and Fort Frances was reduced by over 120 km
as a result of the completion of Hwy 812. Previously, highway traffic had to use Hwy 71 via Emo and Sioux Narrows to travel between Dryden and Fort Frances. In 1981,
Tertiary Highway 812 was renumbered as Secondary Highway 502, since it was now a through highway as opposed to a forest resource access road. See an
Enlarged Photo Here.
