Burnhamthorpe Road

Runs from Tremaine Road in Halton Region to Dundas Street in Etobicoke.
One of the weirdest roads in GTA where it transitions from a busy Etobicoke Neighbourhood , to the Mississauga city centre to a rural road in Oakville.
"So your saying that Burnhamthorpe Road IN Oakville is the SAME ROAD that goes through Mississauga city centre and Etobicoke?"
"Yes, I live on this street, however most of the traffic since 2020 has been diverted to William Halton Pkwy instead."

(The) Queensway

Queensway is a major road running from Roncesvalles Avenue / King Street in Toronto to Glengarry Road in Mississauga. The section between Glengarry and Mavis is local traffic and 2 lane only, because of that, most of the traffic is diverted into Mavis Road.
"WHAT, how does (The) Queensway end like this?, In a neighbourhood?!"
