King's Highway 99, also known as Highway 99 or The Governors Road, was a provincially maintained highway in the Canadian province of Ontario that connected Highway 24 north of Brantford with Highway 8 in Dundas, lying approximately midway between Highway 2 to the south and Highway 5. The Governors Road, an important historical highway, continues west of Highway 24 to Woodstock and onwards to London. Highway 99 was first designated as Highway 5B in 1938, but was renumbered by 1940. The route was paved in 1953, but otherwise remained unchanged until the 1980s, when it was truncated at the Brant County – Hamilton-Wentworth boundary. The remainder of the route was decommissioned in 1997. == Route description == Highway 99 was a generally straight highway that served as an alternative route to Highway 2 and Highway 5. It began at an intersection with Highway 24 and Highway 5 north of Brantford at Osborne Corners. From that intersection, Highway 5 travelled west and Highway 24 south, while both travelled north concurrently. Highway 99 travelled east, crossing the boundary between Brant County and Hamilton (then Wentworth County) east of Osborne Corners. Within Hamilton, the highway crossed a Canadian National Railway on an overpass before bisecting the community of Lynden and Copetown, intersecting Highway 52 in the latter. East of Copetown, the route descended the Niagara Escarpment, finally diverging from its otherwise straight path. It passed through the Dundas Valley Conservation Area before entering the town of Dundas, where it turned north and ended at an intersection with Highway 8 (Cootes Drive).〔
