Infrastructure


Broomhill was served by the Canadian Pacific Railway on its Alida subdivision until a storm in the spring of 1976 washed out the bridge over the Souris River near Lauder Manitoba. The bridge was never repaired and the line was salvaged beginning in 1978, as well as Manitoba Highway 345.
