Current Trunk Highways
Historical Trunk Highways
A comparison of current highway maps and the 1947 Imperial Oil map of the Maritime Provinces will account for many of the "missing" trunk highways:
Trunk 5 has been functionally replaced by Highway 105, with some parts of the previous highway alignment incorporated into Highway 105, and others redesignated as Collector Highways 205 and 305 or as un-numbered roads, particularly "Old Route 5" on Boularderie Island. Note that the latter is a name not a provincial route number.
Trunk 9 ran from Parrsboro to Apple River and has been incorporated into Collector Highway 209.
Trunk 11 has been redesignated as Collector Highway 311.
Trunk 15 has been redesignated as Collector Highway 215.
Trunk 17 has been redesignated as Collector Highway 217.
Trunk 18 has been redesignated as Collector Highway 318.
Trunk 20 ran from Grande Anse to Arichat and has been redesignated as Collector Highway 320. (With the completion of Highway 104 in the region, the present northern terminus of Route 320 is relocated in Louisdale.)
Trunk 21 ran from Oxford to Port Philip, has been incorporated into Collector Highway 321.
Trunk 23 has been redesignated as Collector Highway 223.
Trunk 24 has been redesignated as Collector Highway 224.
Trunk 26 ran between Springhill and Athol. This route existed prior to 1938. A portion of this route (from Springhill to just north of Springhill Jct.) was subsequently incorporated into a new alignment of Trunk 2. The remaining segment of the former Trunk 26 near Athol has remained unsigned since the highway was decommissioned. 
Trunk 30 (former usage) was redesignated as Collector Highway 330, on Cape Sable Island.
Trunk 31 has been redesignated as Collector Highway 331.
Trunk 32 has been redesignated as Collector Highway 332.
Trunk 33 (former usage) has been redesignated as Collector Highway 333.
Trunk 34 has been redesignated as Collector Highway 334.
Trunk 35 has been redesignated as Collector Highway 335..svg.png)
Trunk 40 has been redesignated as Collector Highway 340..svg.png)
Trunk 41 ran from Kentville to Kingsport and has been incorporated in three separate collector highways. The segment from Kentville to Canard has been redesignated as Highway 341; the largely north-south segment between Canard and Canning has been incorporated into Highway 358; finally, the east-west segment between Canning and Kingsport now forms the easternmost segment of Highway 221..svg.png)
Trunk 44 ran from Auld's Cove to Mulgrave and has been incorporated into the much longer Collector Highway 344. Prior to the completion of the Canso Causeway in 1955, Trunk 44 was a portion of Trunk 4, which led to and from ferry service that operated between Mulgrave and Port Hawkesbury on Cape Breton Island..svg.png)
Trunk 45 has been redesignated as Collector Highway 245..svg.png)
Trunk 66 has been redesignated as Collector Highway 366.
These changes are also visible in comparison to the 1955 Major Roads historical map on the Atlas of Canada website.
