King's Highway 8A
Decommissioned Route
| The former King's Highway 8A linked its parent, King's Highway 8, to the old Queenston-Lewiston Bridge. This route was decommissioned in 1970 and most of its former path east of the Niagara Parkway has been overgrown. Between Four Mile Creek Road in St. Davids to the Niagara Parkway, the route is currently known as Niagara Region 81. For more information on the former King's Highway 8A, please visit thekingshighway.ca. |
| Western Terminus: Junction of the former King's Highway 8 at Four Mile Creek Road in St. Davids. |
| Eastern Terminus: The old Queenston-Lewiston Bridge that was dismantled in 1963. |
