Highway 7 - Kitchener to Guelph

Yep, that seems to be the case. Looking at the diagram, the merge between the Bruce St. Extension and the 7-85 ramp looks extraordinarily short; less than 30m in fact. I'm not sure what the engineers are thinking in that case, because that looks incredibly unsafe.

Hey, thanks for the link to that diagram, very helpful to this thread and much appreciated. 

So 30m is like what, 7 cars?  Probably yielding from Bruce to westbound 7 traffic at xxkph (what is the proposed limit anyways?)  Right or wrong I'm expecting 80-100kph cars coming down the 7 ramp ...and once it gets to the collectors there are basically 5 lanes that need to merge into 2 with northbound 85.  Already a CF in this area during rush hours, so I don't see anything making it off Bruce st at all ...hear your point about unsafe.

Seems like there is plenty of space to put eastbound 7 on-ramp after Victoria st? I'm not a city planner and don't mean to offend anyone on this forum, but I joined looking for info so thanks again
