This Photo shows the southern terminus of Both Highway 35 and 115. This section of 35/115 was part of the original Highway 401 for a brief period; when the 401 was extended eastwards towards Port Hope, this section of 401 became incorporated at first into a Highway 35 extension, and later a Highway 35/115 extension. Photo taken: July 3rd, 2011. |

Road overpass. Lovkin Road is located about 800m north of the Highway 401 interchange. As visible in the

the upcoming Highway 401 interchange is affixed to the Lovkin Road overpass. Photo taken: July 3rd, 2011. |

Looking north along Highway 35/115 from the
Highway 2 overpass. Before Highway 401 was extended to just west of
Newcastle, Highway 35 ended in Downtown Newcastle following today's Mill
Street south from Orono. The diversion from Concession Road 3 to Highway 2 opened in 1956, as a limited access two-lane highway that was
later 4-laned in the 1980s. Photo taken: September 1st, 2004. Low-res: 60kb. |

Southbound view as the ramp to (Durham) Highway 2 leaves the RIRO expressway. The 35/115 meets Highway 2 at a diamond interchange. A careful observation of the interchange from ground level reveals the historical footprint of a four-ramp parclo A2 interchange, that was likely re-incarnated into its current diamond configuration when Highway 35/115 was widened to four lanes in the 1980s.

This Photo shows Highway 35/115 looking north from the Ganaraska Road overpass in Kirby. This Photo shows a good example of the shortcomings of a RIRO-type expressway. As you can see from the photo, the actual 'interchanges' are very low standard, typically having ramp speeds of 20km/h. Photo taken: June 20th, 2006. Low-res: 40kb. High-res: 190kb. |

Highway 35/115 at the Enterprise Hill split. At this trumpet, Peterborough-bound traffic stays in the through freeway lanes, where Lindsay-bound departs around the loop ramp northwards. Unfortunately, due to the terrain near the interchange, traffic heading NB on Highway 35 must slow to 30km/h to navigate the loop ramp. Photo taken: June 20th, 2006. Low-res: 40kb. High-res: 190kb. |

Highway 115 looking north from the Highway 35 overpass at Enterprise Hill. Until the early 1990s the divided expressway ended at the top of the pictured hill. Though envisioned as a divided highway when constructed in the early 1950s, between Enterprise Hill and Highway 28, Highway 115 sat as a two-lane expressway into the early 1990s.

interchange was completed in 1991. Highway 115 was widened from a two
lane at-grade highway to a four lane freeway between Highway 35 and Highway
28 during a series of multiyear contracts during the early 1990s.

This picture shows an old style turnaround sign along Highway
35/115 near Orono. Because not all
accesses to a RIRO expressway have an overpass to facilitate a median
crossing, signs are erected at exits with overpasses directing traffic
towards the opposite direction. This sign is fairly old, and is of an
outdated design. Modern signs look more like conventional
trailblazers. Picture taken: 55kb. |

This picture is taken looking north along Airport Road at the Highway 7/115 overpass. It is interesting to note that the control cities on this signage were never updated when Highway 7 was realigned concurrent with the 115 in 2003. Despite that this is a fairly new sign, the control cities marked on it are relics from the time when Highway 28 ran concurrent with the 115 though this area. Picture taken: June 19th, 2004.
