Hwy 420 Niagara Falls Reconstruction


Highway 420 was extensively reconstructed during the early 2000s.  This page highlights some of the work that was completed.

 

Photos taken during construction:

Photos taken: April 12th, 2004

These photos were taken during the reconstruction project that saw the median along Highway 420 replaced with a concrete tallwall barrier and the former truss lighting replaced with high mast lighting.  Both the Portage Road and Drummond Road overpasses that cross Highway 420 were also replaced.  Work was fairly advanced when these photos were taken.
