First eastbound distance sign along Highway 8 east of Goderich.  I find it hard to believe that at the height of Highway 8's length the highway stretched between Goderich and Niagara Falls.  Considering today's travel patterns, such a continuous route number seems odd.

Municipality of Central Huron

County of Huron 
Looking westerly along Highway 8 from Kitchigami Line Road.  A culvert is being replaced in the distance.  This photo was taken in the Summer of 2009, at a time when Highway 8 is being upgraded and resurfaced.

View looking westerly towards the Parr Line intersection along Highway 8.  I am not sure what the work being carried out on the northern shoulder is for.  Perhaps it is to facilitate another culvert replacement.

View looking westerly along Highway 8 near Fish and Game Line.  Fish and Game Line is not a road name you would expect to encounter "South of Steeles".

Municipality of Central Huron

County of Huron 
View looking easterly into Clinton.  Clinton is no longer its own Town, being absorbed into the surrounding township during Mike Harris' tenure as Ontario's premier.  As such, it is surprising the population of Clinton is still listed on its sign.

Municipality of Central Huron

View looking easterly towards the Highway 4 junction in Downtown Clinton.  A few years ago, this intersection was resigned to give precedence to the King's Highway's.  I don't like how it is signed.

Highway 8 meets Highway 4 at the four corners of Clinton.  Highway 4 runs southern into London.  Click here for Highway 4 images.
