Yonge Street in the province of Ontario, Canada, is often but incorrectly cited as the world’s longest street. Yonge Street is Toronto’s primary north-south route, stretching from the shores of Lake Ontario to the shores of Lake Simcoe. While Yonge Street was long synonymous with the massive Highway 11, Yonge Street is actually much shorter. Highway 11 stretches 1,896 km.
