King's Highway 38, commonly referred to as Highway 38, was a provincially maintained highway in the Canadian province of Ontario. The road connects highways 2 and 401 in Kingston with Highway 7 west of Perth.

Highway 38 was designated in 1934 and remained relatively unchanged throughout its existence aside from some minor diversions. At the beginning of 1998, the entire highway was transferred to the City of Kingston and the municipalities of Frontenac County. It is now designated as County Road 38 throughout its length.

Route description

County Road 38 is a north–south route located within Frontenac County in eastern Ontario. The southern terminus is at Highway 2 in the northwest corner of suburban Kingston, while the northern terminus is at Highway 7 north of the town of Sharbot Lake, approximately {{convert|36|km|0}} west of Perth. The road carrying County Road 38 continues south of Highway 401 as Gardiners Road.[1]

There are several communities located along County Road 38 between Kingston and Sharbot Lake, including (from south to north) Harrowsmith, Verona, Godfrey and Parham. The western side of Frontenac Provincial Park is accessible from the route near Verona and Godfrey.[1]

History

Highway 38 was first assumed by the Department of Highways on April 25, 1934, connecting Highway 2 with Highway 7.[2]

While the department initially constructed some diversions to improve the alignment of the route, which followed several concession roads north of Cataraqui, the route remained relatively unchanged from when it was established to when it was decommissioned.

One notable change, made soon before the highway was to be downloaded to the municipalities, was to rebuild the section in Kingston Township between Highway 2 and Highway 401, as a four-lane road on an alignment one block east of the former highway (now Midland Avenue, Kingston), in order to connect directly with Gardiners Road (formerly Frontenac County Road 6). This section (which serves an industrial park) was the first to be decertified as a provincial highway, truncating the road to run between highways 7 and 401 only. The current "Kingston 38" county road - style designation ends at Highway 2 although Gardiners Road as a local street continues to Bath Road (Highway 33).

On January 1, 1998, the entirety of Highway 38 was transferred to the County of Frontenac and the City of Kingston.[3]

It has since been designated as Frontenac Road 38.[1]
