King's Highway 46 - www.OntHighways.com
Highway 46 was transferred to local municipalities in 1997. This was a very logical transfer, as Highway 46 served a very local purpose. At the height of the highway's historic length, Highway 46 was far more important than it was in 1997. Prior to the mid 1960's when Highway 48 was extended northeasterly from Highway 12 through Bolsover, Highway 46 carried traffic northerly from Highway 7 near Oakwood to Highway 35 at Coboconk along the current routing of what is now Kawartha Lakes Road 46, and Kawartha Lakes Road 48. In the mid-1960s when Highway 48 was extended northeast of Highway 12 through Bolsover the east-west leg of Highway 46 was designated as Highway 48. From the 1960s until its decommissioning in 1997, Highway 46 extended from Highway 7 near Oakwood to Highway 48 just east of Bolsover.
