Highway 27 is a provincial highway in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. Being 34 kilometres (21 mi) long, it runs from Highway 41 at Aberdeen to Highway 2 east of Prud'homme.^[1]

History

The present-day Highway 27 is part of the original Provincial Highway 5 alignment, a trans-provincial highway that travelled from Manitoba to Alberta and crossed the South Saskatchewan River via ferry, while Provincial Highway 27 connected Aberdeen with Saskatoon.^[2] In the late 1940s, the highway 5 and 27 designations were switched so that Provincial Highway 5 passed through Saskatoon.^[3]^[4]
