Ontario Highway 136
King's Highway 136, commonly referred to as Highway 136, was a provincially maintained highway in the Canadian province of Ontario, located near Orangeville in the Regional Municipality of Peel. The route was originally part of Highway 24; it was created in 1962 when Highway 24 was rerouted along Highway 51. The highway remained unchanged until 1997, when it was transferred to the Regional Municipality of Peel and Town of Orangeville.
The majority of the former highway is rural in nature, passing through farmland on the highlands of the Niagara Escarpment, located a short distance south of the southern terminus of the route. Near its northern terminus, the surrounds are suburban as the highway enters Orangeville.
