PTH 1 runs east-west across the entire length of the province, the only such highway to do so. It is also one of only two highways along with PTH 59 that pass through the City of Winnipeg.
|
|
|
|
The route is divided and twinned for most of its length and passes through Manitoba's two largest cities, Winnipeg and Brandon.

Within the City of Winnipeg, PTH 1 enters from the east on Fermor Avenue (Route 135), turning north on St. Anne's Road (Route 150) and St. Mary's Road (Route 52) before turning west on Broadway past the Manitoba Legislature. Broadway merges onto Portage Avenue (Route 85/Yellowhead Highway) west of downtown and PTH 1 continues west on Portage Avenue through the city.

|
The Yellowhead designation follows PTH 1 west from the corner of Broadway and Portage Avenue in the City of Winnipeg to west of Portage la Prairie where it follows north west along PTH 16.
