PTH #75 runs from Winnipeg through Morris, becomes I29 in the United States and extends to Mexico. Morris is the only Canadian community on this artery in which PTH #75 serves as the town’s Main Street. Morris is strategically located to capitalize on the emerging north/south trading alliance called the Mid-Continent Trade Corridor, which is one of the fastest growing north/south trade routes between Canada, the U.S. and Mexico. The Canadian National, Canadian Pacific and Burlington Northern Rail lines also serve the community. Morris is situated in the Hub of the Red River Valley, at the crossroads of P.T.H. #23 and #75 which connects with numerous Midwestern U.S. Interstate highways. Highway #75 is used increasingly by Canadian trucking companies that are both national and international carriers. Annual traffic flow is in excess of two million vehicles and according to projections is sure to increase.

Several trucking firms offer long distance hauling, and a national courier provides daily messenger and delivery services.

Morris is also served daily by three major railways:

  • Morris & District Chamber of Commerce
  • BizPal
