427 NB Lanes closures for "Emergency Road Work"

Well-known member
Anyone here get caught in this last night or this morning? Took me 1 hour to go from QEW/427 to 427/401EB. I don't quite understand what is so emergency when the ramp to the WB 401 has been left abandoned in what seemed to be a state of repair, for so long. The thing has been falling apart for the past 5-10 years and construction seemed to be taking just as lone. Now they look like they are finally doing the work and does not seem like it is a quick "emergency" repair... What a ****** show! /rant

Saw one female rider taking to the shoulder to get by everyone. I don't condone it but I certainly get it!
 
yeah i was stuck in it last night at 11pm!!
and like you said, that ramp has been in bad shape forever!
When i heard 'emergency closure' on 680 today, i was wondering what it meant too!
 
Did a chunk fall off?

It took that before council would spend any of the money they had set aside for repairs to the Gardiner Expressway.
 
Some bigwig's luxury car was damaged after a night on the town. Emergency road repair diverted the negligence lawsuit faced by the province.
 
complaining about unions
then put up a video from a communist country on how to do things

Settle down my friend. Taking things out of context...
 

That was the video I was trying to find originally! Regardless, it is not so much about the country, its more about the idea behind a using a large workforce over a short period. Can't count the times I have seen 3-5 guys working on a massive highway construction project while I pass by in the one open lane at 5km/h.

Another good example. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btOE0rcKDC0
 
I can't picture anymore what the south end of the 427 used to look like prior to the semi permanent mess
 
Turn 427 into a $3 a KM paid toll highway and see how fast it will clear up. This is why I love the 407... my only escape route during rush hour.
