New Brunswick Route 106
New Brunswick Route 106 is a highway in New Brunswick, Canada; running from an intersection with Route 1 in Petitcodiac to the Trans-Canada Highway (Route 2) at Sackville; a distance of 91.8 kilometres.
From Petitcodiac, Route 106 follows the north bank of the Petitcodiac River, through River Glade and Salisbury, to Moncton, where it is known as Main Street. In the suburban city of [[Dieppe, New Brunswick}Dieppe]], Route 106 is known as Amirault Street, which leaves the city to the southeast. The road continues in a southeasterly direction to Memramcook, where it turns south to follow the east bank of the Memramcook River to Dorchester. The route then runs eastward to Sackville.
Route 106 follows the original routing of Route 2 until the 1950s, when an entirely new limited-access route was constructed (mainly to bypass Moncton). The former route became Route 2A, but it was renumbered Route 6 in 1965. The 106 number was adopted in 1984 during a reclassification of provincial highways.
Route 106 was extended west to Petitcodiac from its former end at River Glade in 1997 when another section of the Trans-Canada Highway was bypassed.
