Title: 9th line overpass at 401 / 407
Post by: Roy Buchanan on July 10, 2022, 11:27:01 AM
9th line overpass south of Steeles is down to one lane for about 200 m.  There are temporary signal lights controlling traffic, so it looks like it might be like that for a while.

The green light time is very limited.
Southbound: 8 to 10 riders can make it since we go downhill.
Northbound: 1 person barely makes it.
Recommendations:
1. Avoid riding towards Steeles.
2. Allow motor vehicles to passing before you entering the controlled zone.
3. Ride like hell!

PS Remain careful turning on Argentia.

Thank you to you both and for the heads up. I was able to make it just in time heading northbound and wasn't too much of an issue heading back down south.
