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:

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

    You have too much of a life yet before you, and have shown too much of promise as an officer, for your future to be lightly surrendered.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    “Dark times” is what they call it in Norway when the sun remains below the horizon all day long: the temperature falls slowly but surely at such times.—A nice metaphor for all those thinkers for whom the sun of mankind’s future has temporarily disappeared.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
