This page deals with the current Alignment of Highway
6 between Jarvis and Hamilton. For Pre-1997 data, click here. (Coming
Soon)
Highway 6 was downloaded in 1998 to
the city of Norfolk County west of Port Dover, its now called Haldimand-Norfolk
Highway 6. Highway 6's routing in Hamilton was also changed in the late
90's, now instead of heading through congested downtown Hamilton.
Northbound, Highway 6's routing followed: Upper James Street,
Victoria Road, King Street, Dundurn Street, and York Road. Heading
south, it was York Road, Dundurn Street, Main Street, Wellington Street, and
Upper James Street. Highway 6 currently follows a brand new highway
alignment bypassing Hamilton to the south.

Road Info: Highway 6 is in immaculate
shape for the highways entire distance south of Hamilton. Traffic volumes
are fairly light south of Jarvis (and Highway 3). Highway 6 is a very
typical Ontario highway from Jarvis to the start of the Caledonia Bypass (Argyle
Street, south jct) and has much higher traffic volumes then the section south of
Jarvis. The Caledonia Bypass, skirts Caledonia to
the west. It is a grade separated limited access highway, staged for a
future freeway. Highway 6 is a busy four-lane undivided highway from
Caledonia to Hamilton. In November 2004, a new alignment of Highway 6
opened along the south side of Hamilton. This new highway is limited
access, with some grade separations, and a few at-grade crossings. The
Hamilton Bypass (6-New) is built to the absolute highest standards. |
