The West Durham Link is a planned freeway and tollway in the Regional Municipality of Durham in southcentral Ontario, which will connect Highway 401 with the eastern extension of Highway 407. The freeway, which is one of two as-yet unnumbered connectors for the 407 extension, will be located entirely within Whitby, within a kilometre of its western border at Durham Regional Road 23 (Lake Ridge Road). It will be approximately 10 km (6.2 mi) long and is expected to be completed in 2015.
Famous quotes containing the words west and/or link:
“Where there’s more of singing and less of sighing,
Where there’s more of giving and less of buying,
And a man makes friends without half trying
That’s where the West begins.”
—Arthur Chapman (1873–1935)
“John Brown and Giuseppe Garibaldi were contemporaries not solely in the matter of time; their endeavors as liberators link their names where other likeness is absent; and the peaks of their careers were reached almost simultaneously: the Harper’s Ferry Raid occurred in 1859, the raid on Sicily in the following year. Both events, however differing in character, were equally quixotic.”
—John Cournos (1881–1956)
