be simplified, and the Sportsworld interchange could be reconfigured into a
standard Parclo A design, with braided ramps from Highway 401. The PIC showed a
neat simulation of what the road might look like when it was all done. Neat
stuff.

Cool. I didn't realize that the planning was that advanced. I wish the MTO
would put more of these PICs online, like they do with 407 East, Windsor-Essex
Parkway, 427 extension, highway 7 twinning between Ottawa and Carleton Place,
etc. Right now it's kind of scattershot.

What's the bet that this will happen once the current work to widen the highway
southwards to Sportsworld is complete?
