View looking southerly towards the Highway 401 overpass from Sheppard
Avenue. A short collector-distributor (C-D) lane was constructed in the vicinity of Sheppard Avenue
between 2002 and 2007. Separating through and local movements in this
fashion improves traffic flow. Click

Overhead signage, this time for the southbound off-ramp to Sheppard Avenue.
The Sheppard Avenue interchange is located extremely close to the large
Highway 401 interchange. Modern highway designers in Ontario tend not to locate
interchanges in such close proximity to each other on newer highways, as
tight interchange spacing is often a major cause of traffic congestion.

Two views looking southerly towards the 16th Avenue interchange with Highway
404 and Buttonville Airport. Buttonville is a small general aviation
airport that is slated to close as soon as the end of 2013. Once
closed it will be redeveloped as a mixed use high density site. Various
improvements to both the local road network and Highway 404 are planned as
part of this project. The city of Markham website has an interesting
PowerPoint presentation detailing some of the proposed improvements that can
be viewed

This view looks northerly overtop of the Rouge River bridge. Take notice
just how narrow the highway is as it crosses overtop of the Rouge River
bridge. The Rouge River bridge is a pile driven bridge, a design that is
difficult to widen. Accordingly it was not widened when the 404
was six laned in 2001. This bridge is considered
"throw-a-way" infrastructure, and new spans will be constructed prior to
future highway widening.
