History of King's Highway 75 (#1):
King's Highway 75 was one of Ontario's shortest provincial highways. The route was first assumed on September 16, 1936, connecting Highway 3 to Dutton. The
entire highway was only 4 km in length. The road was first paved in 1937. In the mid-1950s, it was decided that Highway 75 was no longer needed in the
Provincial Highway System, so it was transferred to Elgin County on December 6, 1957. The road is presently known as Currie Road or Elgin County
Road 8. In the early 1970s, consideration was given to utilize the King's Highway 75 designation again on a different highway link in the Dunnville area,
but plans for the new highway were shelved. Accordingly, the Highway 75 designation was never utilized again on an Ontario highway.
