Dundas Street /ˈdʌnˌdæs/ is a major historic arterial road in Ontario, Canada. The road connects the city of Toronto with its western suburbs and several cities in southwestern Ontario. Three provincial highways—2, 5, and 99—followed long sections of its course, although these highway segments have since been downloaded to the municipalities they passed through. Originally intended as a military route to connect the shipping port of York (now Toronto) to the envisioned future capital of London, Ontario, the street today connects Toronto landmarks such as Yonge–Dundas Square and the city's principal Chinatown to rural villages and the regional centres of Hamilton and London.

  • Dundas Street /ˈdʌnˌdæs/ is a major historic arterial road in Ontario, Canada. The road connects the city of Toronto with its western suburbs and several cities in southwestern Ontario. Three provincial highways—2, 5, and 99—followed long sections of its course, although these highway segments have since been downloaded to the municipalities they passed through. Originally intended as a military route to connect the shipping port of York (now Toronto) to the envisioned future capital of London, Ontario, the street today connects Toronto landmarks such as Yonge–Dundas Square and the city's principal Chinatown to rural villages and the regional centres of Hamilton and London. A historic alternate name for the street was Governor's Road, as its construction was supervised by John Graves Simcoe, lieutenant governor of Upper Canada; and the section between Hamilton and Paris still bears that name, albeit without an apostrophe. Dundas Street is also one of the few east–west routes to run uninterrupted through the central and western Greater Toronto Area, from Toronto to Hamilton (the others are Lake Shore Boulevard/Lakeshore Road, Eglinton Avenue, Steeles Avenue, Queen Street (Brampton)/Highway 7, and Bovaird Drive/Castlemore Road/Rutherford Road/Carrville Road/16th Avenue). Within Toronto, the TTC's 505 Dundas streetcar route serves the street from Riverdale to the Junction. Following controversy over the namesake of the street, Henry Dundas, 1st Viscount Melville, in delaying the abolition of the Atlantic slave trade, Toronto City Council voted in 2021 to rename the section of street within Toronto – with other municipalities reviewing their use of the name.

  • A Dundas Street é uma rua arterial que se estende desde o leste de Toronto, Ontário, Canadá, até Paris. A Dundas Street apresenta tanto estabelecimentos residenciais como comerciais em grande número. O trecho da rua entre a Spadina Avenue e a Yonge Street abriga uma grande quantidade de estabelecimentos culturais, tais como o e a Universidade Ryerson. O sentido da Dundas Street é leste-oeste, porém, dentro de Toronto, a rua corre em um sentido irregular, uma rara exceção na cidade, onde a maioria das vias públicas arteriais correm em linha reta (sempre leste-oeste ou norte-sul). A Dundas Street é um exemplo popular do aspecto multicultural de Toronto, considerada por muitos como a cidade mais multicultural do mundo. O trecho da Dundas Street no cruzamento com a Spadina Avenue abriga a Chinatown mais proeminente da região metropolitana de Toronto, e a segunda maior da América do Norte. Outra Chinatown existe na Dundas Street, em Mississauga, próximo à sua fronteira com Toronto. A Dundas Street forma a fronteira sul do Portugal Village, (Vila Portuguesa), o bairro português de Toronto (que apresenta a maior comunidade portuguesa entre qualquer grande cidade na América do Norte), com trechos da rua sendo cognomeadas oficialmente de Rua Açores e Little Portugal, secções que formam o coração comercial da comunidade portuguesa de Toronto, bem como muitos brasileiros e italianos. Outras secções da rua abrigam primariamente afro-canadenses, indianos, ingleses, irlandeses, judeus, paquistaneses e poloneses. Notáveis atrações turísticas ao longo da rua incluem o , a Chinatown central de Toronto, o Toronto Eaton Centre, a Bau Xi Gallery, galeria de arte chinesa, e o Dundas Square. A Dundas Street, por causa de sua rota errática, corta a Bloor Street duas vezes. No cruzamento ocidental, próximo à Mississauga, a Dundas Street é também designada de Highway 5, assim sendo até o seu término em Paris, e substituindo a Bloor Street como a principal rua leste-oeste da região metropolitana, até Oakville. O trecho da Dundas Street como Highway 5 é dominada por estabelecimentos comerciais, desde pequenas lojas até grandes shopping centers. A rua homenageia a memória de um político escocês do século XVIII, famoso por atrasar, em 1793, a abolição da escravatura transatlântica por 15 anos, condenando mais de 600 mil pessoas a mais uma década de escravatura. Em julho de 2021 o executivo municipal decidiu aprovar a retirada do nome Dundas, uma decisão que afeta aquela rua, praças, parques e duas estações de metro. (pt)
  • 登打士街(英語:Dundas Street),舊譯旦打街,是加拿大安大略省西南部一條主要街道,東起多倫多,西至倫敦,以中途經過的登打士鎮為名。登打士街部分路段過往曾屬安大略省5號公路,但此省道資格已於1998年取消;現時登打士街位於荷頓區内的路段則隸屬荷頓區5號區道。 登打士街在多倫多市以內有東西之分:央街以西為登打士西街,以東則為登打士東街。登打士街與央街的交界處為多倫多伊頓中心、央-登打士廣場和多倫多都會大學(前稱懷雅遜大學)部分建築所在,而該處亦是市內最繁忙的十字路口之一。為了方便行人,市政府於2008年在此處設置多倫多首個全向十字路口系統。多倫多公車局旗下的503號路面電車線則駛經布魯亞街(Bloor Street)和百樂匯街(Broadview Avenue)之間的一段登打士街。 20世紀20年代起,多倫多舊中區華埠從皇后西街沿伊利沙伯街向北擴展至登打士西街,令登打士西街與卑街的交界處一帶成為舊中區華埠的一部分。然而,多倫多市政府在該世紀50至60年代在舊中區華埠的南部徵地以興建新市政廳和彌敦菲臘廣場;登打士西街沿線的華埠建築雖未受直接影響,但隨著物業東主陸續將業權售予發展商,舊中區華埠的大部分居民和商戶亦相繼遷離。當中不少居民和商戶向西遷往登打士西街與士巴丹拿道的交界處一帶,令該處發展成多倫多市中心的新中區華埠。 (zh)
