City of Belleville Junction assembly along Highway 62 in advance of the former Highway 14 junction.  In the late 1990s, the County of Hastings divested itself of all of its county roads, transferring responsibilities to the local municipalities.  Because of this, today, it is actually quite rare to see a Hastings County route marker.

(1440x960)
City of Belleville  This view looks northerly approaching the former Highway 14 junction, and is taken from a large embankment along the west side of the highway.  Though a bit difficult to discern from the photo, since the highway needs to be re-striped, this intersection is an old MTO offset intersection, where opposing left turning traffic does not directly face each other.
Photo taken: August 16th, 2008.

City of Belleville  Green sign for the Foxboro-Stirling Road.  The Foxboro-Stirling Road is the former Highway 14.  Because Hastings County has no official county road network any longer (though county route shields do still persist across the county), the Foxboro-Stirling Road is not signed as Hastings Road 14.

City of Belleville. This view looks south towards Belleville from the large hill at Halloway Road.  As Highway 62 arcs to the right in this photo, notice the through road that continues ahead on a straight alignment from Highway 62.  This road is the old Madoc Road, and was the county road that predated Highway 62 through Central Hastings County.

Highway 7/62 junction assembly, taken looking northbound along Highway 62 at the traffic lights.  Madoc was the southern terminus of Highway 62 for many years.  It wasn't until 1966 that the MTO assumed local roads leading from Madoc to Foxboro.

Township of Madoc

County of Hastings

Highway 62 looking north from just north of Highway 7 at Madoc.  This is a fairly typical looking section of Highway 62 between Madoc and Bancroft.  This stretch of Highway 62 makes for one of Ontario's more boring drives.  Terrain is fairly flat and scenery is pretty mundane.

Highway 62 looking south from Graphite Road (which is a few kilometres south of Maynooth).  Northbound Highway 62 travelers encounter a long hill climb en route from Bancroft to Maynooth.  This hill is known locally as 'Selby Hill'.  Due to this long grade, Highway 62 has a roughly 3 kilometre long northbound truck climbing lane.

Southerly view at Highway 60.  This junction is very unassuming for the intersection of two King's Highways.  The simplicity of this junction probably speaks to Highway 62's relative unimportance through Renfrew County.  Highway 62 has an indirect alignment around Round Lake.
