Roads in Ontario

Steeles Avenue is an east-west street that forms the northern city limit of Toronto and the southern limit of York Region, Ontario, Canada. It stretches 77.3 km (48.0 mi) across the western and central Greater Toronto Area from Appleby Line, in the Town of Milton east to the Toronto/Pickering limits where it changes its name to Taunton Road, which itself extends 58 km (36 mi) across the length of Durham Region to the Northumberland County line. It is named after J. C. Steele, who owned the Green Bush Hotel on the northwest corner of the street's intersection with Yonge Street. York Region refers to Steeles Avenue as Regional Road 95, but the designation is strictly internal and there are no signs posted. Steeles in Scarborough was once referred to as Scarborough Town Line.
