Route 161 is a north/south highway south of the St. Lawrence River in Quebec, Canada. Its current northern terminus is east of the junction of Autoroute 55 in Saint-Wenceslas, and its southern terminus is at the border of Maine in the USA, where it continues as Maine State Route 27.
On July 6, 2013, the route was severed at Lac-Mégantic, Quebec by an oil train derailment. Ministry of Transport consultants began surveying a site for a new bridge across the Chaudière River in August 2013.
