Secondary Highway 541A, commonly referred to as Highway 541A, was a provincially maintained secondary highway in the Canadian province of Ontario. This short 3.2-kilometre (2.0 mi) spur connected Highway 541 (now Greater Sudbury Road 86) north of Garson with the community of Falconbridge.
Highway 541A is now known as Municipal Road 89, and follows Longyear Drive. It was formally part of the Falconbridge Highway, and existed originally as a spur of Highway 541 when secondary highways were first introduced in 1956. The route gained its own designation by 1962, and continued to exist until the formation of the Regional Municipality of Sudbury, now Greater Sudbury, in 1973.
