Route 134 is a -long north–south secondary highway in eastern New Brunswick, Canada. The highway is divided by into a northern and southern section by a gap in Northumberland County connected by Route 11 and Route 8. History Route 134, for the most part, consists of former routings of Route 8 and Route 11. It was first designated in 1972 with the opening of the Shediac four-lane highway between Moncton and Shediac (now part of Route 15). Different sections of Route 134 continued to appear between the mid-1970s and the early 1990s as construction continued of new controlled-access alignments of Route 8 and Route 11. As Route 11 between Kouchibouguac and Miramichi, and a stretch of Route 8 south of Allardville have never been upgraded, Route 134 remains a "broken" route. A third segment of Route 134 appeared briefly on maps in the early 1990s along Oldfield Road north of Miramichi (after a new alignment of Route 8 was constructed), whether it was signed or officially part ...

Northumberland Strait
The Northumberland Strait (French: ''détroit de Northumberland'') is a strait in the southern part of the Gulf of Saint Lawrence in eastern Canada. The strait is formed by Prince Edward Island and the gulf's eastern, southern, and western shores. Boundaries The western boundary of the strait is delineated by a line running between North Cape, Prince Edward Island and Point Escuminac, New Brunswick while the eastern boundary is delineated by a line running between East Point, Prince Edward Island and Inverness, Nova Scotia.

The strait's shallow depths lend to warm water temperatures in summer months, with some areas reaching 25° C, or 77° F. Consequently, the strait is repo ...
