King's Highway 418, or simply Highway 418, is a future tolled controlled-access highway in the Canadian province of Ontario. The planned 400-series highway will travel through the Regional Municipality of Durham to connect Highway 401 with the eastern extension of Highway 407. The freeway will be located entirely within Clarington near Durham Regional Road 34 (Courtice Road). The route number was confirmed by the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario on February 6, 2015. Prior to this, it was known as the East Durham Link.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Highway 407 East )〕 == Future == Highway 418 is one of two proposed freeways to connect the future east extension of Highway 407 with Highway 401; Highway 412, to be located to the west in Whitby, is the second. The two routes, known then as the West Durham Link and East Durham Link, first appeared on the June 2007 Technically Recommended Route, which was submitted as part of the environmental assessment (EA) for the extension, but had been announced earlier that year on March 7 by the Government of Canada, as part of an investment in Greater Toronto Area infrastructure.〔(Canada’s New Government announces investment to cut commute times, clear the air and drive the economy in the Greater Toronto Area ), Web site of the Prime Minister of Canada, retrieved March 7, 2007〕 The EA report was released on August 17, 2009, including detailed plans for the configuration of the interchanges along the new freeway. On June 9, 2010, it was announced that the Highway 407 extension would be completed in phases, with Highway 412 being fully constructed, and the mainline being extended as far as Harmony Road in Oshawa. On February 6, 2015, it was announced by the MTO that the East Durham Link would be designated Highway 418. On May 11, 2015, a contract was awarded for the second phase of the project, which would begin construction of a portion of Highway 418 from Highway 407 to Taunton Road, to finish by 2017 and the remainder of the highway completed by 2020.〔(Contract Awarded for Phase 2 Highway 407 East Project )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ontario Highway 418」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
