'''Route 218''' is a two-lane east/west highway in [[Quebec]], [[Canada]]. Its western terminus is at the junction of [[Quebec Route 132|Route 132]] in [[Saint-Pierre-les-Becquets, Quebec|Saint-Pierre-les-Becquets]] and its eastern terminus is
==
From Saint-Pierre-les-Becquets to its junction with [[Quebec Autoroute 20|Autoroute 20]], it runs southeasterly (except from a brief northeastern-bound concurrency with [[Quebec Route 226|Route 226]]) until it reaches the [[Bécancour River]], which it follows West on its North shore until Lyster, where it shares a concurrency with [[Quebec Route 116|Route 116]]. From there it turns northeasterly toward a concurrency with [[Quebec Route 271|Route 271]] in Sainte-Agathe-de-Lotbinière and its junction with [[Quebec Route 269|Route 269]] between Saint-Patrice-de-Beaurivage and Saint-Gilles, with both routes following the [[Beaurivage River]] downstream before separating at Saint-Gilles, where Route 218 crosses the river toward Saint-Lambert-de-Lauzon, where it crosses the [[Chaudière River]]. From there it goes to very join briefly the lengthy concurrency between [[Quebec Route 273|Routes 273]] and [[Quebec Route 175|Route 175]] before Route 273 separate, leaving the two others going Northeast to cross the [[Etchemin River]] in Saint-Henri-de-Lévis, where Route 175 goes Northwest while Route 218 goes Southeast for a 1 km concurrency with [[Quebec Route 277|Route 277]]. Finally, it goes again northeasterly, roughly following the [[Boyer River]] toward Saint-Charles-de-Bellechasse and its terminus just south of [[Quebec Autoroute 20|Autoroute 20]].
