Nikola Tesla Boulevard is the official exit #90 from QEW. The signage along the QEW for Burlington Street was eventually replaced between October 22-23, 2016 to reflect the name change. After this change, the westbound lanes of Burlington street begin from the first exit on Nikola Tesla Boulevard, heading westbound.
