Provincial Road 304 (PR 304) is a provincial road in the Eastman and NorMan regions of Manitoba, Canada. It begins at PTH 59/PTH 12 south of Grand Beach and runs to Powerview-Pine Falls at the PTH 11 junction. Near the town, PR 304 crosses the Winnipeg River at the Pine Falls Generating Station, operated by Manitoba Hydro.[1] From there, PR 304 heads north and then east to the community of Bissett, before terminating at Provincial Road 314 near the northern boundary of Nopiming Provincial Park.[2] [3]

Provincial Roads 304, 313, 314, and 315, along with PTH 11, form a loop that provides access to several remote communities, First Nations reserves, and provincial parks on the eastern side of Lake Winnipeg. PR 304 is also used as a south terminus for winter roads to northern Manitoba.[4]
