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:

    Perhaps if the future existed, concretely and individually, as something that could be discerned by a better brain, the past would not be so seductive: its demands would be balanced by those of the future. Persons might then straddle the middle stretch of the seesaw when considering this or that object. It might be fun.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    The future depends entirely on what each of us does every day ... a movement is only people moving.
    Gloria Steinem (b. 1934)

    The future which we hold in trust for our own children will be shaped by our fairness to other people’s children.
    Marian Wright Edelman (20th century)
