charlesn Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 I'm planning on heading east towards P-borough tomorrow and was wondering if someone could update me on the 407 East extension. I need to get to 35/115, so I will probably be better off taking 401 there in the morning with minimal traffic at those hours, but was hoping to avoid rush hour on the way back. Can anyone tell me if the eastern extension to 35/115 is done yet? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishermccann Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 No not done yet, a couple of years for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecmilley Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 might be done in 15 years, you can take 7 to peterborough from the 407 but depending on the hour the 401 east in the morning is pretty good and fast from scarborough out just watch for the radar all along this corridor in the am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KelfuN Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 401 would be the best bet. when you are coming home, traffic doesnt start on 401 until the bowmanville area to ajax...when the express lanes begins, no traffic at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garry2Rs Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 The 407 stops at Brock Road, in Pickering, you turn right for about 10 Km to reach the 401 then go east on the 401 to exit 436...Hwys. #35/115. Follow the 115 into Peterborough. If you are traveling early, taking the 401 all the way is shorter. You can PM me if you need directions to a specific location in Peterborough, or the best way to reach a certain lake/boat ramp etc. Garry2R's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlesn Posted July 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Thanks to all! With the money they've made off of suckers like me, you'd think they coulda made an extension to Ottawa and paved it with gold by now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fang Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Get to google map and check out Taunton Rd. It's a few miles south of the end of the 407 East but It'll take you over to 35. It's a bit faster that 7 and less travelled Has always been my shortcut through Ajax Whitby when 401 is a mess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinker Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Take the 401, even if you hit traffic, its still quicker than 407. once the 407 ends, its all traffic lights and mostly single lane. Traffic on the 401 will still be faster. S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutch Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 401 will be fine that early as far as traffic goes. I'll get you on the right path for going home. See you in the a.m! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
