Talk:Ontario Highway 96

Concurrency with Ontario 95
If 95 existed before 96, it would have needed to connect to the rest of the Ontario highway system somehow. Given that NY Route 12E isn't in Ontario and Simcoe Island is a dead end, the only other way off the island is the provincial ferry directly to Ontario Highway 2 in Kingston. That would require the inclusion of part of the town's main street (what would become 96) briefly as part of 95. It wouldn't require concurrency on 96's completion, though, as the 95 markers could have just as easily been removed from the village main street the day 96 was posted. Any concurrency was therefore short-lived. 66.102.83.61 (talk) 02:45, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Some sources (such as Cameron Bevers site) claim that the concurrency remained right until the highways were downloaded, but the logs I received from the MTO for the 97/98 downloading only mentions the section south of Highway 96. The mileage tables on older Ontario road maps (pre 1963) never list it. -  ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ  τ ¢  02:55, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
