PR 243 is one of the southernmost east-west highways in the province, and travels in very close proximity to the Canada - US border. During the entire route, the highway travels no more than 6 kilometres (4 mi) from the international boundary. Together with portions of PTH 3 and PTH 32, PR 243 forms the Boundary Commission Trail heading west from Emerson to the Saskatchewan border.

PR 243 is paved between Gretna and its western terminus. The road is gravel between Gretna and Emerson.
