List of roads in Toronto

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Many Toronto roads, especially the major ones, have signage resembling this one.

This is a list of major roads in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The city is organized in a grid pattern dating back to the plan laid out by Lieutenant Governor John Graves Simcoe in 1793. Most streets are aligned in the north-south or east-west direction. The Toronto road system is also influenced by its topography as some roads are aligned with Lake Ontario, the old Lake Iroquois shoreline, or the deep valleys.

Controlled-access roads are italicized.
