100 series: Hamilton

[Hamilton, ON highway map]

In 1979, the regional government of Hamilton-Wentworth devised a network of numbered roads within the City of Hamilton itself. Roads were numbered in a way that made more sense for maintenance tabulation than for navigation: Some regional "highways" were concurrent with provincial highways (being internal designations for municipally-maintained connecting links), and individual couplets of one-way pairs were given separate numbers. As such, it's doubtful that any of these 100-series road numbers were actually signed in the field, and by 1984 they had even been dropped from maps.
