Beginning at Scarborough Bluffs by Lake Ontario , Brimley weaves through Scarborough, past Steeles Avenue and ends at 14th Avenue in Markham. The Scarborough portion is mainly residential with small Strip Plaza s along the way. At the intersection of Brimley and Sheppard there is a Chinese retail zone. On Brimley north of Finch is Brimley forest, a small patch of what the area once looked like. The section south of Sheppard was once cut off at Highway 401 , but it was connected by a partial overpass in the 1990s over the objections of many area residents on concerns over increased traffic volume. Past Steeles, Brimley weaves through the residential areas of the Milliken community of Markham. HISTORY A museum off Brimley north of Lawrence Avenue East in Thomson Park pays tribute to the founding family of the former Township of Scarborough; Highland Creek runs through the park. TRANSPORTATION
Before the 1980s, Brimley Road was cut off at Highway 401, but a partial Cloverleaf /overpass was added, and the two sections were re-connected. NEARBY Things to see along Brimley:
