  407 ETR - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Overall there are 40 different junctions on Highway 407 connecting the toll road with the main transportation network in the Greater Toronto Area.
Highway 407 was the eighth 400-Series Highway planned for Ontario, to serve as a bypass of Highway 401 through Toronto and to serve as a major east-west corridor across the sprawling suburbs to the north of the city.
Extensions westward to the Queen Elizabeth Way and eastward to Highway 7 and Brock Road in Pickering were constructed by the corporation, as mandated in the lease agreement.

 Retford
The road from London as far as Markham Moor had been turnpiked by 1726 and by 1765 all the way to Berwick, except for the section from Markham to Doncaster.
It was on the Worksop Road but came to be on the A1, with the dual carriageway skirting uncomfortably close to the northern edge of the village when the A1 moved from its Retford route to run further west, past Ranby and Blyth to the Doncaster motorway by-pass, opened in July 1961.
Despite the straightness of the A614 south from Appleyhead to Olllerton, this road is not thought to have a Roman origin, nor was it one of the 100 'Principal Roads' included in Ogilby's Britannia.
