Talk:Quebec Autoroute 20

2-20

As an English-speaking native Montrealer, I've heard A-20 referred to as the "Two and Twenty" countless times, but I'm itching to know why; it's not A-22, after all. rakslice (talk) 02:24, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

AFAIK, it was once Quebec Provincial Highway #2, before the Autoroute system was built. 76.66.193.69 (talk) 13:10, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

I had the impression that the Two part of the Two and Twenty originally connected to Highway 2 (Ontario) before all the Trans-Canada/401 stuff. Could be wrong. AndroidCat (talk) 05:13, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

When I was much younger (1960s) it was actually the 2-17 (two and seventeen). The 17 part presumably branched off towards Ottawa and connected with the 17 in Ontario, while the 2 went towards Toronto (the "old highway" in Ontario still bears that number). It took people a while to adjust when the 2-17 became the 2-20, and many have continued to call it that ever since, even though the Route 2 designation was dropped many years ago (1970s??? - wish I could remember when). A Google search for ["highway 2-20" quebec] turns up many current references.

A diagram/photo of the Remembrance Highway logo/signage would be nice, like the one for the 401 article File:Sep0707-highwayofheroes.jpg 76.66.193.69 (talk) 13:10, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
