Hi Colin,
Thanks for that information. It's great to see a City Councillor on this forum keeping track of realistic issues.
The information about the 401/ Tremaine exit was given to me by the Mattamy Sales office. They did not say a date, but they gave the impression that it was going to be happening soon.
Thanks again.

Hi dijuy
Who did you speak to at the Town?
Please pm. me as the Region who is in charge of Tremaine Road just put the proposed #401 interchange in its 2017 capital budget (check halton.ca under road projects) and just had the Enivronmental Assessment report approved.
The section they may be refering to, is from Derry Road to the new Main St. W. traffic circle which is budgeted for 2011 and the Main to Steeles Ave. section with a re-aligned intersection at Steeles about 300 metres east of the current location in 2012.
The cost of the Steeles Ave. to Campbellville Side Road section which includes a railway underpass, new bridge over the 16 mile creek and a full interchange similar to Mavis & #401 is now estimated at $90 million + hopefully with the new Federal-Provincial infrastructure project the Region could be eligible for funding for an earlier construction date.
Currently the intersection of Bronte and Steeles is being widened for traffic lights which should be operational this fall, and the purchase of road section for James Snow Parkway south of Louis St. Laurent Blvd to Britannia road has closed so the construction can begin soon on the 4 lane road and traffic lights half half between 4th and 5th lines in the next 6-9 months.
Will let everyone know when the capital budget for 2009 will be discussing for your comments and ideas.
