Well, after some kind negotiations with a contact in the MTO, I was able to get some interesting information out of them regarding the upcoming (and over due)...
... Ummm, I don't think this worked Brian. All I know is that it's on the south side of the 401 between Brock Rd (the 'not Hwy 12' one) and Westney, if I...
After posting the picture as a standard message, and realizing that Yahoo! would not post the picture to the group (except by individual emails, sometimes), I...
I spotted this aerial pic of Hwy-400 at Telson Road, http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&z=16&ll=43.861685,-79.551659&spn=0.010056,0.019956&t=k&om=1 just to the...
First of all, its Teston Road, not Telson. Second of all, yes there are plans for an interchange there, but I think the progress on that has been hampered...
To the north-west of Ayr, just west of Greenfield, there were some ramps being used to access 401. Were those ramps built as construction access only (for the...
... As far as I know, they are for emergency access. There is about 20 km if I'm right between interchanges there, and they will serve as emergency detour...
I don't know if it's intended for emergency detour access, but I know they were built largely to get emergency vehicles onto the highway faster and better. The...
... Are the accesses off the 401 west of K-W (right around the construction) the same kind of deal? They have an orange light on the top of a large arm that...
... Yes. they are emergency behicle access, but as far as I understand it they are not going to be used for regular traffic access. Never say never, though,...
... The j-ramps to the south of Teston Road will also mean that there will be no weaving problems with the service/rest centre to the north of the interchange...
To my understanding and from who I have spoken with, York is paying for the interchange and should be completed by the end of 2008. This also includes widening...
... I would imagine that the Vaughan Service Centre is not long for this world anyways. My guess is they close it during the next few years when they prepare...
...But I have no problem taking screenshots! Today's one of those fun days on Ontario highways, at least fun for this time of year. Josh and I were amusing...
http://www.citynews.ca/news/news_8456.aspx Winter sucks. The Gardiner is closed due to ice flying off the CN Tower. And if you watch the video, the towers in...
you can check out the photos of the closed Gardiner on the City of Toronto's RESCU traffic cameras: http://www.toronto.ca/rescu/index.htm and for people who've...
Well actually it won't be announced until tomorrow sometime but expect to see some kind of news article on the MTO's site. CTV news reported (from what I...
Since I got my G2 in November of 2003, I've managed to clinch about 5,000km of Ontario's highways. The problem is with each passing roadgeeking season, I get...
... One of the best things about roadgeeking is exploring the towns and cities the highways take you to. Once you visit a certain place a few times, you'll...
Hello everyone, I didn't see any links on the MTO's site but I found it on the PM's site. So enjoy. Canada's New Government announces investment to cut commute...
... I usually just build creative routes into trips I have to make anyway. However, when I vacation in North America my trips are roadtrips, designed to travel...
... One nice way to roadtrip is by staying at bed and breakfasts - not the smarmy yuppie ones, but the little mom&pop style ones, which are usually cheaper....
... !!! This is the first time that I've seen a timeline attached to this. If this is followed, it means that as soon as the EA process is done (2009, IIRC),...
... Caffeine! hehe! I can average upwards of a full day roadgeeking - sunrise to sunset (if I can get up early enough). Most of the time it's usually all ...
Yeah, I think that's one of my big problems. I never actually get out of my car to take in the ambience of the towns and country, even if it's not roadgeek...
