Heritage Highway
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Heritage Highway is an Ontario tourist route that travels from Windsor, Ontario all the way to Gaspe, Quebec, along much of what was formerly Quebec Highway 2 (present-day Quebec Route 132) and Kings Highway 2. The Heritage Highway designation also continued along Kings Highway 18 (Now Essex County Road 20), looping around the western end of Essex County, before heading back eastbound towards Leamington, Ontario. It then would continue along Highway 3 to Wainfleet, Ontario, before terminating at Fort Erie, Ontario, with a spur heading back to Windsor along Essex CR 34. The trail is also concurrent with the Loyalist Parkway in Eastern Ontario.
The route also had a spur along Highway 11 to North Bay, Ontario, where it would meet fellow Heritage Highway, Highway 17, which would travel from Sault Sainte Marie, Ontario to Montreal, Quebec.
There are still a couple signs reminaing on the routes, with one sign in Harrow, Ontario on CR 20. Until 1997, there were a few signs along former Highway 3 alignment Essex CR 34 around the Cottam, Ontario and Essex, Ontario areas.
Other signs on the Heritage Highway are reversed in colours, with a white wheel and white lettering on a brown background.
