Provincial Road 422 (PR 422) is a provincial road in the Pembina Valley Region of the Canadian province of Manitoba. Located entirely within the Rural Municipality of Morris, it runs from Highway 23 near the town of Morris to Provincial Road 205 in Rosenort. It is a paved two-lane highway for its entire length.
Provincial Road 422 is also known as Meridian Road, as its road allowance contains the prime meridian (or first meridian) established in 1869 as part of the Dominion Land Survey of Western Canada. The prime meridian was established at 97°27′28.41″ west, with its southern end being exactly ten miles west of where the Red River crosses the border from the United States into Canada.
