Secondary Highway 556 - www.OntHighways.com
Highway 556 is a long east-west secondary highway that leads motorists through the remote Algoma Highlands between Heyden at Highway 17, and Highway 129. Though terminating only a short distance north of Sault Ste. Marie along Highway 17, Highway 556 is an amazingly remote secondary highway. Services are non-existed along the route, nor are there any services along Highway 129 at the highway's eastern end. It should further be noted that most of Highway 556 has not been asphalted, and has been described as a bone-rattling ride. Motorists are advised to take caution before venturing along Highway 556.
