Newfoundland and Labrador Route 360


Route 360, also known as Bay d'Espoir Highway, is a provincial highway in Newfoundland and Labrador. It runs from the Bishop's Falls area to Bay d'Espoir and Harbour Breton. The road is very isolated for at least, where there are no communities or stops to refuel. Bishop's Falls and Harbour Breton are the only two settlements of any size along the entire length of Route 360, with other town and communities being along the other highways it intersects.

Route description

Route 360 begins as Southside Drive in Harbour Breton at a dead end along the coast of Fortune Bay. It winds its way west through neighbourhoods before bypassing downtown along Canada Drive. The highway now leaves Harbour Breton and winds its way northward up the entire length of the Connaigre Peninsula to have an intersection with Route 364. Route 360 heads up the Hermitage River Valley to pass by Hardy's Cove and have an intersection with Route 362 before winding its way through remote, scenic, and hilly terrain for the next several kilometres.
