View
looking northerly along Highway 49 from just north of the former Picton Town
Limits. Highway 49 was surfaced in concrete in 1965, in conjunction
with the completion of the Quinte Skyway Bridge. Considering the
concrete is over 40 years old now, it is in amazing condition.

Looking north along Highway 49 towards the
Quinte Skyway in Prince Edward County. Interestingly, virtually the
entire length of Highway 49 through Prince Edward County is still paved with
1960s vintage concrete.

Looking south, up the same hill the previous picture is looking down,
towards Picton. Most of the northern portions of Prince Edward County
are situated high above the neighbouring Bay of Quinte atop this ridge.

Looking north once again towards the Quinte
Skyway and the junction with Prince Edward Road 15. Interestingly,
Prince Edward Road 15 actually passes under Highway 49 through the Quinte
Skyway, necessitating a connector road be constructed to link Highway 49
with County Road 15.

looking southerly from the south end of the Quinte Skyway Bridge into Prince
Edward County. Its a bit ironic that Ontario's Prince Edward County is
contained on an island.

view approaching the eastern Highway 2 intersection. Traffic signals
were installed at this junction in 2008. Amazingly, despite the
construction, the Highway 2 signs pointing to Deseronto were not removed!
