From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Highway 658 is a secondary highway in the Canadian province of Ontario. The highway extends for 29 kilometres from the city of Kenora to the community of Redditt in the Kenora District.
Originally designated as Highway 128, the highway was relegated from primary to secondary highway status in 1975, along with Highway 116 and Highway 119. In that year, it was given the new designation Highway 666, although after frequent sign thefts — and complaints from a Pentecostal church located along the highway — due to the number's famous connotations as the Biblical Number of the Beast, its number was changed to the current 658 in 1985 [1].
