King's Highway 112 - O N T H I G H W A Y S
King's Highway 112 is a fairly short highway with an interesting history. The highway is in actuality an original alignment of Highway 11. In the early 1940s, a new alignment west of Round Lake (often called the Round Lake Diversion) was constructed and also designated as part of Highway 11. This obviously proved to be a problem as area motorists were faced with two parallel routes designated as Highway 11. Fortunately in 1953, this now bypassed portion Highway 11 was re-designated as Highway 112. Since then, Highway 112 has changed very little, and was not affected by provincial downloading.
