On-Ramp Metering

[Canard]

Wikipedia: Ramp Meter

I'd like to see On-Ramp metering implemented on the following On-Ramps onto Hwy 401:

• Franklin to 401 Westbound
  
• Hwy. 24 (both North and Southbound ramps) to 401 Westbound
  

These three ramps are what cause 401 Westbound to back up at rushour every day (in addition to the too-short offramp onto Hwy. 8 Northbound).  It would better permit every-other car merging onto the highway, instead of what happens now:  A light goes green on the ramp road, 20-30 cars follow bumper-to-bumper around the ramp, flood onto 401... then a big pause when the light above goes red.

I actively try to leave a gap between me and the car in front of me when going around the ramp when this happens, but of course it's pointless because the guy behind me is right up my ass and doesn't get it.
