Simcoe County Road 27

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] History

Simcoe Road 27 is formerly Ontario Highway 27. After the Highway 400 extensions northeast of Barrie were completed in the 1980s, the section of Highway 27 north of Waverly was re-designated as an extension of Highway 93. In 1998, the road was downgraded to a county road. The section north of Waverley was made a part of Highway 93. The portion between Simcoe County Road 90 (former Former Highway 90) and Simcoe County Road 30 was once Highway 131. The road stretches from the York Region/Simcoe Region boundary (Highway 9) to Penetanguishene, Ontario.

[edit] Different names in different regional municipalities

Simcoe Road 27 also runs through York Region and Toronto, Ontario. South of Highway 9, the road is referred to as York Regional Road 27. Further south, south of Steeles Avenue, it is referred to as Highway 27.

[edit] Rename

Portions of Simcoe Road 27 are now renamed as Barrie Street near Innisfil.
