History of Secondary Highway 570:
Secondary Highway 570 is a local highway in the District of Timiskaming that provides access from Highway 11 to the small community of Sesekinika, located north
of Kirkland Lake. Highway 570 was first designated by an Order-in-Council dated May 9, 1956. The route was first depicted on a Preliminary Route Plan prepared by the
Department of Highways of Ontario (DHO) in June, 1956. Highway 570 has remained more or less the same ever since the route was first established in 1956. The highway
was paved in 1964, although the easternmost section of the highway has since reverted to a gravel surface. Unless posted otherwise, the speed limit on Highway 570 is
80 km/h (50 mph). There are no services available on this highway.
