Note 1: In Essex County, odd-numbered roads are North-South, increasing in number to the east. Even-numbered roads are GENERALLY east-west roads, increasing in number to the south, but there are exceptions to the rules. County Roads are also no longer signed within the City Limits of Windsor.

Note 2: In Essex County, there are several roads named "Malden Road", and are not related or connected directly to each other.

Note 3: The Essex By-Pass (Current Highway 3) was built in stages, from 1977 to 1981. The first stage was to just south of Essex, where it was routed along Malden Road to its former alignment (Now CR 34). It was extended to Ruthven in 1981, and then routed around Leamington in 1997.

Note 4: In 2002, the City of Windsor annexed a large portion of the Town of Tecumseh. Portions of several county roads lost their status as county roads and only exist in name. It is expected that the roads will be renamed in the future.

Famous quotes containing the words suburban and/or roads:

“The car has become the carapace, the protective and aggressive shell, of urban and suburban man.”
—Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)

“Other roads do some violence to Nature, and bring the traveler to stare at her, but the river steals into the scenery it traverses without intrusion, silently creating and adorning it, and is as free to come and go as the zephyr.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
