King's Highway 52 -   O N T   H I G H W A Y S

Highway 52 was a short highway that ran from Highway 2/53 just west of Duff's Corners northerly to Highway 8 at Peters Corners.  Despite now serving as part of the major route between Cambridge and Hamilton, Highway 52 was virtually entirely downloaded in 1998.  Only a very short section of Highway 52 still exists, this section lies between Highways 5 and 8 in Peters Corners.  The remainder of Highway 52 will soon be resigned as and known as Hamilton Road 52.  Presently the route is still completely unsigned.
