Alberta Provincial Highway No. 35, commonly referred to as Highway 35, is a north–south highway in northwestern Alberta, Canada that forms a portion of the Mackenzie Highway. Highway 35, along with portions of Highway 2 and Highway 49, form Alberta's Arctic Corridor that connect the CANMEX Corridor with the Northwest Territories, and is designated as a core route of Canada's National Highway System. Highway 35 is about 464 kilometres (288 mi) long.[1]

Route description

From the south, Highway 35 begins at its intersection with Highway 2, approximately 5 km (3 mi) north of the Town of Grimshaw and 19 km (12 mi) west of the Town of Peace River, and ends at Alberta's boundary with the Northwest Territories.[2] Highway 35 passes through the towns of Manning and High Level. It continues on as Northwest Territories Highway 1. It is the only paved highway connecting to the Northwest Territories one of two highway-grade roads that and the only one connecting the Northwest Territories with Alberta, with the other being Highway 48 which does connect the rest of Alberta's Provincial Highway Network. This results in Highway 35 being one of two highway-grade roads connecting the Northwest Territories with the North American highway network, the other being the Liard Highway.
