Limeridge Road is a two-way Upper City (mountain) collector road in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. It starts off just West of Garth Street/William McCulloch Park as Limeridge Court and cuts across the Hamilton mountain eastward running parallel with the Lincoln M. Alexander Parkway and ends at Mountain Brow Boulevard, South of Mohawk Sports Park in front of Upper King's Forest Park. Formerly, this road ran continuously and uninterrupted until the completion of the Expressway which saw sections of it cut off and removed at Upper James, Upper Wentworth and Upper Gage to make way for the Expressway's exit ramps. The Eastern end of Limeridge Road overlooks Buttermilk Falls at King's Forest Park. Albion Falls is two minutes South of this location.[1][2] HistoryLimeridge Road is named after a limestone ridge that can be seen today in the rock cuts running parallel to the Lincoln M. Alexander Parkway.[3]LandmarksNote: Listing of Landmarks from West to East.- William McCulloch Park
