History

Highway 25 is part of the original Provincial Highway 3, which from Melfort traveled west to St. Louis, crossed the South Saskatchewan River via the St. Louis Bridge, and traveled concurrent with Highway 2 to Prince Albert.[2] In 1970, Highway 3 was realigned to the newly constructed Muskoday Bridge and the bypassed segment between Birch Hills and St. Louis was renumbered to Highway 25.[3][4]
