Sherman Access (Hamilton, Ontario)
- Sherman Access (Hamilton, Ontario)
Sherman Access is a mountain pass in Hamilton, Ontario. It starts off in Kenilworth Access to Charlton Avenue. The access is unique in that it operates as a one-way road during rush hours, in order to relieve traffic on other mountain passes.
History
The road was first named Shearman, but later changed to Sherman in honour of Frank Sherman (1887 - 1967), the co-founder of what is now Dofasco.
Unique identity
The Sherman Access is the only mountain access with time restrictions. The pass opens every Monday to Friday during rush hour. The northbound is open to traffic for the morning rush; while the southbound is open to traffic during the afternoon rush. The rest of the time, it operates as a regular two-lane road.
