Talk:Ontario Highway 7

Carleton Place edit

The same year, construction started on a 21-km four-phase project between the 417 in Ottawa and McNeely Avenue (the former Highway 15 in Carleton Place) to convert Highway 7 to a four-lane, controlled access highway.

There is some erroneous information here. McNeely Avenue is not the former Highway 15. The former Highway 15 has been become Lanark County Road 29 (as that portion of former Highway 15 had previously been numbered as Highway 29). McNeely Avenue is a bypass for that road which has been constructed (or, at least, completed) since the highway was downloaded. The former Highway 15 went through downtown Carleton Place and intersects Highway 7 at the current terminus of Highway 15 (the road now continues into Carleton Place as Franktown Road instead of Highway 15).

I will edit the article to remove the erroneous detail, but will likely lose some of the detail that is already there. If others wish to include that info in a corrected version, I don't object. - Cafemusique (talk) 18:42, 22 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

McNeely Avenue is former Highway 29 and now Lanark County Road 29. Townline Road is actually Lanark County Road 7B (formerly Highway 7B) despite being signed on Highway 7 as Lanark County Road 29. Highway 29 used to be Highway 15 from Smiths Falls to Carleton Place, and also continued to Arnprior along what is now Lanark County Road 29 (McNeely Avenue) and Ottawa Road 29. Highway 15 used to be what now is Lanark County Road 43 (the former Highway 43) and then was a concurrency with Highway 7 to then-Highway 17 (now Highway 417). I believe the information I changed is correct (Google Maps agrees with my changes) but feel free to update it in case I was incorrect. BigBenzino (talk) 22:28, 22 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
