Durham Rd 16 (Ritson North) & Bond East signal signs
Contrary to Wikipedia, the majority of Dundas St in Whitby is not Regional Hwy 2 and in Oshawa, King St and Bond St are not Regional Hwy 2. Regional Hwy 2 actually has two discontinuities in the Municipality of Clarington.
Kingston Rd in Ajax and Pickering is Regional Hwy 2.
The Regional Municipality of Durham has a list of regional roads on its site: www.durham.ca/en/living-here/regional-roads-list.aspx
I suspect the portions of former King's Highways 2, 12 and 47, which are currently not regional roads, were transferred from the province directly to Clarington, Oshawa, Uxbridge Twp and Whitby. I suspect said portions were never part of Durham Region's regional road system after the download from the Province of Ontario.
Durham has been considering adding additional portions of former King's Highway 2 to its regional road system. web.archive.org/web/20190731151849/https://icreate7.esolu...
An inset on the 2004 Edition MapArt Ontario road map colours parts of former King's Highway 2 in Durham yellow and other parts of it white, indicating that parts are regional and other parts are local, respectively. Most of Dundas is white. King and Bond are white. Two sections in Clarington are white. Former King's Highway 12 south of RR 28 is white, indicating it is a local road. The regional road numbers 2 and 12 are provided on the yellow portions with "HWY". There is no legend for the insets. A newer MapArt Golden Horseshoe atlas has a page which colours the same sections yellow or white. The atlas provides a legend for this page, which provides the meaning of the yellow colour - that a road has the status of a regional or county road.
King St, Bond St, the local part of Dundas St, the local part of Brock St, etc. are can be erroneously marked on maps as regional roads. Maps are often outdated and mark them as the King's Highways that they once were. A map error that I have come accross is Quinte West Rd 28 being marked on a parallel road on the north side of the actual Road 28. (The actual Road 28 is on the south side of Wooler. A road on the north side of Wooler gets erroneously marked as Road 28.)
