Future
The East Durham Link is one of two proposed freeways to connect the future east extension of Highway 407 with Highway 401; the West Durham Link, to be located to the west in Whitby, is the second. The links first appeared on the June 2007 Technically Recommended Route, which was submitted as part of the environmental assessment (EA) for the extension, but had been announced earlier that year on March 7 by the Government of Canada, as part of an investment in Greater Toronto Area infrastructure.
The EA report was released on August 17, 2009, including detailed plans for the configuration of the interchanges along the new freeway. On June 9, 2010, it was announced that the Highway 407 extension would be completed in phases, with the West Durham Link being fully constructed, and the mainline being extended as far as Simcoe Street in Oshawa. Because of this, the East Durham Link may not have contracts tendered for its construction for several years.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“I don’t see much future for the Americans.... Everything about the behavior of American society reveals that it’s half Judaized, and the other half negrified. How can one expect a State like that to hold together?”
—Adolf Hitler (1889–1945)
“Although I’m trying very hard
To sound unlike a birthday card,
That’s all this is: so you may find it
Full of all that lies behind it
Admiration; friendship too;
And hope that in the future you
Reap ever richer revenue.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“Do not discourage your children from hoarding, if they have a taste to it; whoever lays up his penny rather than part with it for a cake, at least is not the slave of gross appetite; and shows besides a preference always to be esteemed, of the future to the present moment.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
