Ev DelenIn 1999 Mike Harris leased the 407ETR for 99 years (functionally sold) to a private consortium. He used the proceeds to fix a hole in his government’s finances so he could claim he was a good financial manager.The new owners were not interested in trucks bypassing Toronto, they only wanted profits, and quickly revamped the toll structure to favour cars since they occupied less road space and created less maintenance causing wear and tear.6/7<a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Toronto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Toronto</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/ONPoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ONPoli</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/TOPoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TOPoli</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Ontario" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ontario</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/DougFord" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DougFord</a>

Ev DelenHave you ever noticed how the 407 is mostly paved with concrete rather than asphalt? It's more expensive, but concrete lasts longer under heavy loads, such as trucking.However, the fate of the expressway would veer in a completely different direction from the plans with the election of the Harris “Common Sense Revolution™” Conservatives.5/7<a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Toronto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Toronto</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/ONPoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ONPoli</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/TOPoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TOPoli</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Ontario" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ontario</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/DougFord" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DougFord</a>

Ev DelenThe idea was that the toll for trucks would be about the same as the cost of a truck sitting in traffic on the 401. Therefore shipping times would be reduced but costs should be the same, and there is a guaranteed revenue stream. Cars would be allowed on the highway but the thinking was many motorists would favour the 401 since there were lower costs associated with that route.4/7<a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Toronto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Toronto</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/ONPoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ONPoli</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/TOPoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TOPoli</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Ontario" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ontario</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/DougFord" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DougFord</a>

Ev DelenUnder the Rae NDP administration, governing during a recession, the decision was made to make the highway a toll road, and that brought with it an opportunity. The 407 route was mostly along green fields and there was a need for more serviced land near expressways for industry.The 407 wasn’t just going to be a bypass for the 401, it would be a truck bypass freeing up room on the 401 where it would better serve people.3/7<a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Toronto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Toronto</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/ONPoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ONPoli</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/TOPoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TOPoli</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Ontario" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ontario</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/DougFord" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DougFord</a>
