View of the western terminus of Highway 7A at
Manchester. Durham Regional Road 21 continues west of this junction.
It is a good road, worthy of a King's Highway designation, as it makes a
very useful connection between Highway 7A and Highway 404. Photo taken: July 5th, 2009. |

Highway 7A looking west from the Island Road
intersection towards Port Perry. Interestingly, the causeway linking
Port Perry with Scugog Island replaced a floating bridge. This
floating bridge was constructed by the county long before Highway 7A was
assumed as a provincial highway. Reportedly this floating bridge
lasted until the mid 1960s. Picture taken: August 17th, 2005. Size: 60kb. |

the pictured hill was deeply cut, allowing for much better sightlines at the
Island Road intersection. Picture taken: August 17th, 2005. Size: 50kb. |

White sign denoting the numbering change along
Highway 115 from Highway 7A/115. Highway 7A was truncated at the 115
interchange just east of Cavan when Highway 7 was rerouted along part of
Highway 7A's alignment between Highway 28 and Scott's Corners in 2003.
This means that Highway 7A's eastern terminus is no longer at Highway 7. Picture taken: September 2nd, 2005. Size: 65kb. |
