Highway 10X

Alberta Highway 10X.svg

Highway 10X is a spur of Highway 10 that runs for only 5.5 kilometres, connecting the former hamlet of Wayne with the main Highway 10. Following the amalgamation of Drumheller with the Municipal District of Badlands in 1997, the entire highway falls within the Town of Drumheller. The road follows the course of the Rosebud River through a 100-150m deep canyon. Eleven bridges lead the road from one side of the river to the other, and most of the bridges are paralleled by railroad bridges of a presently abandoned track that used to cart coal from the Wayne mine.
