Present Day Highway 96 Photographs

Above - One of the strangest sights on Hwy 96 is a sign indicating "Hwy 7051". This is a highly unusual
signing practice, as the MTO does not normally post 7000-series highway numbers on signs. Hwy
7051 connects the Winter Ferry Dock with Hwy 96. It is located 2 km east of Marysville.
