    Toronto Kipling Station Transit Hub | ?m | 2s | Metrolinx | SAI

    On a similar note, is there any coffee/snack shop inside the bus terminal? Or will anyone entering the new hub need to go across the street to Tim's now for coffee?

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    Lots of (mostly bridge replacement) projects are underway to provide enough room for HOV to Barrie, and eventually express/collector thru Barrie to the Hwy 11 interchange.

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    There are long term plans to grade separate the Hwy 50/Major Mackenzie/Coleraine intersection, to allow easy access from Hwy 50 SB to the MMD to 427 SB on-ramp.

    Roads: Gardiner Expressway catch-all, incl. Hybrid Design (2015-onwards)

    There is no pillar replacement as part of the current Jarvis to Cherry deck replacement works. With all the deck sections replaced, all they have to do now is complete the north barrier wall and pave before traffic can shift to the opposite side and then rinse and repeat for replacing the...

    I'd be surprised if they keep this widening in their improvement plan for 2021. 407ETR Traffic has dropped off a cliff since COVID. Going forwards it will be interesting to see when traffic volumes recover as many will be working from home much longer than we first thought. QEW/403...

    This only halted the work for a single weekend (3 nights). It will be back to full night work the following week.

    QEW - Mississauga/Credit River Project

    Pretty stupid. Now anyone who goes under will see one really old arch bridge and a new modern bridge and they don't match at all.

    Shame they didn't make it free for the holidays until Jan 2 like they did when the first phase opened.

    QEW - Mississauga/Credit River Project

    The only people who even see the arches are those in the $5M+ houses nearby and the one or two people you can see kayaking here each day in the summer. Compare that with 175,000 vehicles driving over it every day.

    Roads: GTA West Corridor—Highway 413

    That black area is not actually the 427 interchange location, it represents any interchange. As shown here the black outlines are the GTAWEST/27 (full) and GTAWEST/Weston Road (partial) interchanges. All Hwy 427 extensions start at the SE corner of lot 66 (MMD/Hwy 50 where the current...

    Roads: Highway 401 Widening - Highway 8 to Highway 410 (MTO, U/C, Planned)

    Actually based on the plans I have seen, the intent is to maintain traffic on existing Creditview while the new bridge is built in two stages (hence the slight realignment). In other words, the east half of the new bridge is built first, then traffic moves onto it and then the existing bridge...

    Roads: Highway 401 Widening - Highway 8 to Highway 410 (MTO, U/C, Planned)

    Yes, Creditview Road will be demolished over 401 and a new bridge built that is 4 lanes wide and multiple spans long to fit 401 core/collector lanes underneath. Creditview will be slightly realigned to accommodate this.

    Roads: GTA West Corridor—Highway 413

    So people here are surprised to hear a new highway will induce cars to actually drive on it? This highway will basically connect Milton to Vaughan, through Brampton. It's not like transit will ever be built along this corridor (with exception of course for 407 bus route which is 50 years...

    Roads: Gardiner Expressway catch-all, incl. Hybrid Design (2015-onwards)

    The current project is a like for like replacement of the section between Jarvis & Cherry Streets. The future hybridization will be east of Cherry.

    Some big projects are happening on 401, although not sure he can really take credit for these. Widening Mississauga-Milton express/collector Widening west of London something like 130km from 4 to 6 lanes QEW: Credit River bridge is being twinned in Mississauga, but this has been in the works...

    Off-street to on-street bike lane transition?

    Roads: Ontario/GTA Highways Discussion

    Found a map of the original route from 2001. I wonder how it might change given the development in this area the last 20 years? http://www.downloads.ene.gov.on.ca/files/eaab/hwy400-404_bradford_NoC.pdf

    It should help smooth traffic flow in the meanwhile and also build both of the bridges over Major Mackenzie now that would be needed in the future to carry Hwy 427.
