In other cases, multiple segments have been combined into single routes by building connecting pieces. Fischer-Hallman Road is like that; it’s really Fischer Road, plus Hallman Road, plus new construction between I think just north of Glasgow down to Highland. There even at one time (might still be) one road sign which said “Fischer/Hallman Rd.” (slash, not dash). Erbsville/Ira Needles/Trussler is another example, and Westmount has sections that are over a hundred years old, others built in the ’60s, and others built in the last 20 or so years. All paved or re-paved much more recently that the ’60s, of course.Park/Jubilee/Courtland/Fairway/Kossuth is one of my favourite examples of local roads having been stitched together over the years. You can get from Park/William all the way out to Kossuth/Hespeler (Highway 24) without ever turning off the street you're driving on, for a total of 22km.
Nah, far better was Caroline->Erb->Bridgeport->Riverbend->Shirley->Lackner->Fairway Cres->Idle Creek
Basically head south in Kitchener, never put on a turn signal, end up heading south in Waterloo 7 km to the north.
Except it's ruined now because of the provinces work on Shirley Ave.
That being said, I don't think these are the same, connecting roads like this doesn't create the same confusion that having roads with the same two names travelling parallel but also intersecting multiple times.
