Highway 77 is the name of a current King's Highway that travels from Leamington, Ontario to Highway 401. It is one of three provincially-controlled roads in Essex County (The others being Highway 3 and Highway 401.

The road serves mainly as a connecting link from Leamington to Highway 401, and sees generally light traffic levels, but is busier closer to the town of Leamington, and near the town of Staples. It has a short 2.6 km concurrency with Essex County Road 8.

North of Highway 401 (Exit 48, the road continues as Essex County Road 35. The provincially maintained part of the highway south of the new Highway 3 bypass was decommissioned in 1998 and is now known as Erie Street.

Conditions on the road range greatly, such as its traffic amounts. The stretch of road in Lakeshore, Ontario (in the Comber areas, basically anything northeast of Staples) is in good to excellent condition. The section immediately south of Essex County Road 7 south into downtown Leamington is in fair to very poor condition, and is among the most neglected in the provincial highway network, both in pavement quality and in the relatively large traffic amounts it handles (for the rural area it is in).
