Route 71

Route 71 is a provincial road in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. Located on the Avalon Peninsula, the route connects the Trans-Canada Highway near Hodgewater Pond with the town of South River in the Conception Bay area on Route 70. The road travels through the town of Makinsons, and upon exiting the Trans-Canada Highway, it is a dirt road until just before approaching the turnoff to Route 75 (Veteran’s Memorial Highway) after which it transitions into a paved road. Along the stretch of dirt road, there are summer cottages prevalent on both sides.

The dirt road section of Route 71 can be accessed in street view in the computer program Google Earth.
