City of Port Colborne Regional Municipality of Niagara	Southbound junction assembly for the Highway 3/Niagara Road 3 intersection at the South end of Highway 58. Highway 3 is locally controlled through the urban section of Port Colborne, and is as such inconsistently signed as both Highway 3 and Regional Road 3. Photo taken: February 23rd, 2005.
City of Welland Regional Municipality of Niagara	View looking northbound at the Forks Road intersection. Forks Road meets at a rather odd looking stop-controlled parclo interchange, due to some tight geometry between Highway 58, a railway line, and Forks Road itself. Photo taken: May 8th, 2005.

City of Welland Regional Municipality of Niagara	Newly erected green signs advising drivers of their choices as they approach Welland.

City of Thorold Regional Municipality of Niagara	Southerly view of Highway 58 from just south of Thorold Stone Road. This stretch of Highway 58 is no longer paved in concrete.

City of Thorold Regional Municipality of Niagara	Highway 58 looking south from the Pine Street overpass in Thorold. This Photo shows the western (northern) Portal to the Thorold Tunnel. Notice the onramp to Highway 58 from Pine Street meets Highway 58 at a stop sign. Because of the close proximity with the Thorold Tunnel, there was insufficient room to construct a proper merge lane at Pine Street. Photo taken: February 23rd, 2005. Size: 55kb.	Low Res High Res
