Route 785 is a 68.8-kilometre (42.8 mi) long mostly north–south secondary highway in the southwestern portion of New Brunswick, Canada. Locally, this road may be known as either the "Shin Crick Road" or the "Mine Road". In the early 1980s, a mine was established off Route 785, at Mount Pleasant. Today, Adex Mining holds a mineral claim on the mine however the mine is currently in an idle state. As a result of mine development at Mount Pleasant, Route 785 was heavily developed and rerouted from the original stage coach trail. Another name for the road is the "Sheldon Lee Highway", a satirical reference to former New Brunswick Minister of Transportation, Hon. Sheldon Lee, who continued developed the road during his terms in office, especially on the portion of road north of Mount Pleasant. Mr. Lee lived in the community of Bonny River, which is located near the southern end of Route 785, and like many people today, frequently used Route 785 for travel to Fredericton from the St. George area, roughly shaving off 40km per trip when compared to highway travel. Today, the road is heavily used by forest operations.
