Future
Highway 402 is presently being widened in the Sarnia area from four to six lanes. Due to extensive truck backups from the bridge crossing towards the USA, the westbound lanes will be widened by two lanes; eastbound capacity will remain as it is. The new four lane roadway will be divided into specific lanes for cars, trucks (two lanes), and local traffic. Construction began August 4, 2009 between the Blue Water Bridge and Lambton County Road 26 (Mandaumin Road) and includes the reconstruction of several bridges. It is expected to be completed in August 2012.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“The primary function of myth is to validate an existing social order. Myth enshrines conservative social values, raising tradition on a pedestal. It expresses and confirms, rather than explains or questions, the sources of cultural attitudes and values.... Because myth anchors the present in the past it is a sociological charter for a future society which is an exact replica of the present one.”
—Ann Oakley (b. 1944)
“I am not naturally ... “A bag of wind”; yet ... I mean deliberately and decidedly “to cut” in future all my old ideas on this head. I don’t think modesty “pays.” It is a good quality in a family, it is a domestic virtue, it makes a home happy after you have got a home, but it is not potent in getting homes. It is not a money-maker, neither is it lucky in gaining a reputation. I am of the impression that gaseous bodies do better.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“The future of humanity is uncertain, even in the most prosperous countries, and the quality of life deteriorates; and yet I believe that what is being discovered about the infinitely large and infinitely small is sufficient to absolve this end of the century and millennium. What a very few are acquiring in knowledge of the physical world will perhaps cause this period not to be judged as a pure return of barbarism.”
—Primo Levi (1919–1987)
