Noonan / Estevan – North Dakota Highway 40 / Saskatchewan Highway 47
Highway 47, heading north out of Estevan up to Stoughton, has been named the “most dangerous highway in Saskatchewan.” The roadway is in bad shape with missing chunks of pavement, ruts, potholes and signs warning of “road hazards ahead.” In addition, Canadian Highway 39, which links Estevan with the city of Regina, is a heavy truck corridor with high traffic volume and has been the site of many fatal traffic accidents. Most of the traffic on the highway consists of large semi-trailer trucks including massive oil field and coal company vehicles. Road improvements have been planned, and there is a 13-kilometer Hwy 39 bypass route north of Estevan.
