Blurb

King's Highway 403, is a 400-series highway in Ontario between Woodstock and Mississauga, branching off southwards from Highway 401 and travelling through Hamilton and Mississauga before reuniting with the 401. It is concurrent with the Queen Elizabeth Way (QEW) for 22 km (14 mi) from Burlington to Oakville. The 403 designation was applied to a short tub in 1963, although the route was not completed until the Brantford to Ancaster section opened in 1997. The Woodstock to Burlington stretch was dedicated as the Alexander Graham Bell Parkway in 2016. Most of Highway 403 runs through suburbia, except west of Hamilton, which is agricultural except for Brantford. In Hamilton, Highway 403 descends the Niagara Escarpment, then runs north of Hamilton Harbour to the QEW. Co-signed with the QEW, it then travels through Burlington and Oakville, departing from the QEW to the north at the Mississauga–Oakville boundary. It then crosses Mississauga city centre before turning north and ends at Highway 401, with lanes forking off to the south. Highway 410 then continues north to Brampton.
