Ontario Highway 427 - Future

Future

An environmental assessment has been completed on a northward extension of Highway 427 to Major Mackenzie Drive to relieve traffic issues on Highway 7 and provide improved access to the Canadian Pacific Intermodal Terminal. A temporary arterial road extension was opened in the autumn of 2008 by York Region and designated as Regional Road 99. This road serves to provide improved access to Highway 27 and Highway 50, but it will be removed when construction begins on the freeway extension. Technical designs have been prepared for the approved route as far as Major Mackenzie Drive, but no timeline has been set for construction as of yet.

Famous quotes containing the word future:

    “He who asks fortune-tellers the future unwittingly forfeits an inner intimation of coming events that is a thousand times more exact than anything they may say. He is impelled by inertia, rather than curiosity, and nothing is more unlike the submissive apathy with which he hears his fate revealed than the alert dexterity with which the man of courage lays hands on the future.”
    —Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)

    “complaint of present days
    Is not the certain path to future praise.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “It lives less in the present
    Than in the future always,
    And less in both together
    Than in the past.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
