Ontario provincial highway 403 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Highway 403 was finally made continuous instead by multiplexing it with the QEW (a rarity in Ontario for 400-series highways) in 2002. Nonetheless, the right-of-way intended for the complete Highway 403 remained vacant for a decade, until it was used instead for the Highway 407 extension to Burlington. To accommodate Highway 403 traffic headed for Highway 427, the stretch of Highway 401 near Pearson International Airport was widened to an 18-lane collector-express system in 1986. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Ontario_provincial_highway_403   (1423 words)

History of Ontario's King's Highways - FAQ's The exact reason is not clear, but reportedly, Highway 1 was omitted from the 1925 route numbering system to eliminate conflicts between many of Ontario's larger towns, who all demanded to be on a highway bearing the route number "1". Highway 17 is the longest, with a length of approximately 2,000 kilometers (1,242 miles). If the Ministry does re-use an obsolete highway number, all efforts are made to place the new highway designation as far away as possible from the original designation, to avoid confusion amongst the motoring public. www.thekingshighway.ca /faq.htm   (1846 words)

Highway 401 - the Story.html Highway 401 was also conceived as a completely controlled-access highway on a separate alignment from start to finish, bypassing all the cities and towns along its length. Highway 401 construction was delayed in part, because of material and manpower shortages after World War II and onset of the Korean war in 1949. But the Ontario Department of Highways was hard at work putting the finishing touches on the first section of dual lane highway between Highland Creek and Oshawa that would later be incorporated as part of Ontario's new trans-provincial super highway, the "Four-O-One". roadscholar.on.ca /lateststory.html   (4953 words)

Ontario Provincial Highways: Highway 401 History In the era of highway downloading that is the late 1990s, the entire length of Hwy 401 has been retained in the provincial highway system, although many of the parallel routes, the old Hwy 2 in particular, have been lost to the cuts. The "bypass" was a 42 km segment of freeway from the existing Hwy 2A in Scarborough near the Rouge River on the east to then-Hwy 27 (later converted into present-day Hwy 427) on the west. With the shift in population and the accessibility of the 401 as an easy commuter route, the highway which was planned to carry 48,000 cars per day was overloaded at 85,000 cars per day by 1959! members.aol.com /hwys/OntHwys/OntHwys401Hist.html   (2289 words)

Crowsnest Highway Though the Crowsnest Highway from Cranbrook to the Alberta border had been entirely rebuilt three years earlier, it was still better to send students to school by foot and bicycle than to entrust them to a bus on a major highway. The Crowsnest Highway was the major auto-route across the mountains, and more dreams and hopes of a better future were shattered on the gravel outside the Inn than anywhere else on the boundary. Beyond the bridge a few metres, the Railway lunges across the Highway in a level crossing and, struggling to gain elevation in its final assault on the Great Divide, charges away up the Michel’s valley seven kilometres in and seven kilometres out, gaining 300 precious vertical feet in what is called the McGillivray Loop. www.crowsnest-highway.ca /cgi-bin/citypage.pl?city=sparwood   (11515 words)
