Provincial Trunk Highway 190 (PTH 190), also known as CentrePort Canada Way, is a provincial highway in the Canadian province of Manitoba. It connects the Perimeter Highway with Winnipeg Route 25 (Inkster Boulevard) in the City of Winnipeg; part of the highway passes through the neighbouring Rural Municipality of Rosser. The highway includes a traffic interchange at the junction with the Perimeter Highway, as well as a grade separation over the CP Rail main line. The highway is intended to service the industrial lands west of James Armstrong Richardson Winnipeg International Airport, which will be a part of the CentrePort Canada cargo hub. It is numbered for its ultimate role in connecting Highway 1 with Winnipeg Route 90.

PTH 190 is one of four three-digit urban expressway routes in the Manitoba highway network.
CentrePort Canada Way was opened to traffic on November 22, 2013.[2] The expressway was officially opened at a ribbon cutting ceremony attended by Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Manitoba Premier Greg Selinger, and Diane Gray, CentrePort Canada President and CEO.[3]
Future
editThe Province of Manitoba has plans to extend CentrePort Canada Way west to the Highway 1 / Highway 26 intersection near St. François Xavier, bypassing the signalized intersections in Headingley and also referred to as the Headingley Bypass.[4][5] No timeline has been set for construction.
