County Road 2 is the designation given to Tecumseh Road outside of Windsor, Ontario. It skirts along the shore of Lake St. Clair in the northern edge of Essex County, Ontario, from Tecumseh, Ontario to its terminus near Lighthouse Cove and Tilbury. Though Tecumseh Road shares roughly 9/10s of this road's path, the two are not exactly synonymous, as County Roads are no longer signed in Windsor, and Tecumseh Road diverts from the county road in Belle River, Ontario.
Part of the route was the original alignment of Highway 39, until it was absorbed by Highway 2 in 1970.

Famous quotes containing the words county and/or road:
“I could draw Bloom County with my nose and pay my cleaning lady to write it, and I’d bet I wouldn’t lose 10% of my papers over the next twenty years. Such is the nature of comic-strips. Once established, their half-life is usually more than nuclear waste.”
—Berkeley Breathed (b. 1957)
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
