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:

    A fixed image of the future is in the worst sense ahistorical.
    Juliet Mitchell (b. 1940)

    If nations always moved from one set of furnished rooms to another—and always into a better set—things might be easier, but the trouble is that there is no one to prepare the new rooms. The future is worse than the ocean—there is nothing there. It will be what men and circumstances make it.
    Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)
