Brimley Road is a north-south street in Toronto and the Regional Municipality of York, Ontario, Canada. In Toronto, it is located entirely within Scarborough and carried 32000 vehicles daily in May 2007[1] Hence, it is classified as a major arterial road by the city of Toronto.[2]
Beginning at Scarborough Bluffs by Lake Ontario,[3] Brimley goes straight through Scarborough, past Steeles Avenue and ends at 14th Avenue in Markham. The Scarborough portion is mainly residential with small strip plazas along the way, and the super-regional mall, Scarborough Town Centre. North of Finch Avenue is Brimley Woods (Macklin's Bush), a small forest patch and now city park of what the area once looked like. Past Steeles, Brimley weaves through the residential areas of the Milliken community of Markham.
