==Route description==

Hwy 255 begins in the Rural Municipality of Nipawin No. 487 at an intersection with Hwy 55 (Northern Woods and Water Route) nearly halfway between the town of Nipawin and the hamlet of Blue Jay. It heads north along Range Road 2133 to cross the Petaigan River via a causeway and travel through rural farmland for a few kilometres, passing by the Rolling Pines Golf Course and an RV park before curving eastward onto Township Road 520 near the Gingara Subsivision. After travelling due east through rural areas for a few kilometres, the highway makes a sudden sharp left onto Range Road 2130 as it crosses into the Rural Municipality of Moose Range No. 486, with Township Road 520 continuing east towards Hwy 123, Petaigan, and Cumberland House. Hwy 255 begins running parallel to the southern coastline of Tobin Lake, heading northeast past several lakeside resorts and campgrounds to enter the resort village of Tobin Lake, travelling through neighbourhoods before coming to an end at a boat launch in the centre of town. The entire length of Hwy 255 is a paved, two-lane highway.<ref name=Simpleview> {{Cite Web|url=https://assets.simpleviewinc.com/simpleview/image/upload/v1/clients/saskatoon/SaskatchewanHighwayMap_7e13a454-85ca-464f-9e59-b47d014fcedd.pdf|title=Official Saskatchewan Highway Map|author=Government of Saskatchewan|access-date=August 27, 2025}} </ref>
