Windsor Suburban Roads

This page lists all of the numbered county roads in Essex County, Ontario.

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:

“When I consider the clouds stretched in stupendous masses across the sky, frowning with darkness or glowing with downy light, or gilded with the rays of the setting sun, like the battlements of a city in the heavens, their grandeur appears thrown away on the meanness of my employment; the drapery is altogether too rich for such poor acting. I am hardly worthy to be a suburban dweller outside those walls.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“They’re busy making bigger roads,
and better roads and more,
so that people can discover
even faster than before
that everything is everywhere alike.”
—Piet Hein (b. 1905)
