Map of Rte 62, Winnipeg, MB, Canada
The official route begins on Salter Street in the city's North End; its northernmost point is often given on maps as the intersection of Salter Street and Redwood Avenue. As it passes southward over the CPR Winnipeg Rail Yards and past the West End, its name changes from Salter Street to Isabel Street, Balmoral Street, Colony Street, Memorial Boulevard, and Osborne Street North, all in a space of less than two kilometres. It remains as Osborne Street North as it passes by the Manitoba Legislative Building, and then as Osborne Street as it crosses over the Assiniboine River at the Osborne Bridge, through Confusion Corner and into Fort Rouge. The route's name changes to Dunkirk Drive when it enters the suburb of St. Vital at the St. Vital Bridge over the Red River, and again to Dakota Street when it crosses St. Mary's Road just north of St. Vital Centre. The route ends at the intersection of Dakota Street and Aldgate Road in the Dakota Crossing neighbourhood of south St. Vital.
Route 62 is a major arterial route serving both the North End and St. Vital, and forms the westernmost boundary of the downtown core. Osborne Street between the Assiniboine and Red Rivers is a major shopping district, especially in the area between Roslyn Road and Corydon Avenue, known as Osborne Village.
