Saskatchewan Highway 23

Highway 23 begins at Highway 55 about 9 kilometres (5.6 mi) north of the town of Carrot River.^[4] Continuing south from Carrot River, the highway provides access to Pasquia Regional Park^[5] and crosses the Carrot River. About 8.5 kilometres (5.3 mi) south of the river crossing, the highway turns west where it passes through Arborfield.^[6] A short distance west of Arborfield, the highway turns back south where it continues this southerly travel until just north of Bjorkdale.^[7] This section of highway has a 3.3-kilometre (2.1 mi) concurrency with Highway 3 and provides access to Crooked River.

From Bjorkdale, Highway 23 heads east to its southern terminus at Highway 9. Communities along this stretch of highway include Chelan, Porcupine Plain,^[8] Carragana,^[9] Somme, Weekes,^[10] and Bertwell.
