In Saskatchewan and Manitoba, rural municipalities, township-like administrative units below the provincial level, are made up of groups of said surveyed townships. While not an administrative unit, Alberta and Saskatchewan do have numbered township and range roads in rural areas based on the old Dominion Land Survey. Township 1 is the first north of the First Base Line, and the numbers increase to the north. Townships are designated by their township number and range number. These townships are nominally six miles by six miles (36 square miles, or roughly 93 km 2).
