They can figure out the best way to build 2 more lanes with a median divider wide enough for future growth in the decades to come and overpasses in those future decades. In the immediate term it might be an opportunity to look at Michigan U-Turn lanes at some of the cross roads and lights at others. It's a win-win for our region and major safety improvement. London area politicians need to step up.

Something similar to Veterans Memorial Parkway would be a good fit.
I really think it’s something the province should be doing, since it goes through three different jurisdictions (London, Elgin County, St. Thomas).
