Best Answer

The Trans-Canada Highway is also known by numbers, the most common of which is 1. The Trans-Canada Highway is also known as Highway 1 in all four western provinces plus Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland, and by a variety of numbers in the remaining four provinces.

Many people think that the Macdonald-Cartier Freeway (a.k.a. Highway 401) in southern Ontario is part of the Trans-Canada Highway, but that is a misconception. No part of the Macdonald-Cartier Freeway is the Trans-Canada Highway.

Highway 16 in the four western provinces is "a" Trans-Canada Highway, but not "the" Trans-Canada Highway. Highway 16 is also known as the Yellowhead Highway.
