	Ontario Provincial Highways: Highway 401 History
		Further expansion of the 401 through the Metro area, however, was made possible because of the foresight the original planners had in purchasing the 300-foot (100 m) right-of-way.
		The shields, in the shape and general design of the King's Highway shields, were white-on-blue (instead of the normal fl-on-white) with the large letters "M-C" in the main part of the shield and the word "Freeway" in much smaller type at the bottom, where the province's name usually resides.
		In the era of highway downloading that is the late 1990s, the entire length of Hwy 401 has been retained in the provincial highway system, although many of the parallel routes, the old Hwy 2 in particular, have been lost to the cuts.

	Highways
		My interest in highways has constantly been there, but it was not something that I talked about much for many years, because I assumed there was nobody else out there as interested as I am.
		During the same year, the Historical Highways Society of Ontario (HHSO) was formed by some fellow Ontario roadgeeks, to preserve the history of what was once a large King's Highway network in the Province of Ontario.
		Highway historian and HHSO co-president Cameron Bevers discusses the development of the King's Highways throughout the past 85 years, including the building of the QEW and Highway 401, the different route number shields used over the years, and the mass highway downloading of the late 1990s.

		Interestingly enough, there was strong pressure on the government to toll the partially built Highway 401 in the mid-1950s, as the driving public became frustrated with what was seen as the snail-like pace of construction.
		Highway 401 was also conceived as a completely controlled-access highway on a separate alignment from start to finish, bypassing all the cities and towns along its length.
		Highway 401 construction was delayed in part, because of material and manpower shortages after World War II and onset of the Korean war in 1949.

	TRAFFIC JAM: The Back Bumper License Plates Page
		Highways 2 and 401 basically ran parallel, so despite the history of the road, it was cut up into strings of county roads with different numbers.
		Many other highways in Southern Ontario are meeting the same fate-- if they haven't disappeared altogether, they have become discontinuous, with stretches of county-designated roads (some with different numbers) in between the King's Highway portions...
		The Ontario highways up in the northern half of the province are fewer in number and more spread out, and as far as I know, they aren't going to be changing with the times, aside from stretches of road within town limits.
