Westbound view approaching the end of the divided highway at Carleton Place.  The westbound carriageway (the pictured carriageway) carried two way traffic during most of the 2011 construction season while the existing (eastbound) carriageway was being reconstructed.  At the time that this photo was taken, the reconstruction of the eastbound carriageway had been completed, with the westbound carriageway carrying unidirectional traffic, however the westbound lanes had not been re-striped accordingly.
Photo taken: September 19th, 2011.

Large warning sign announcing the end of the divided highway in Carleton Place.  Of course, because the westbound carriageway had yet to receive its final coat of asphalt and final striping when this photo was taken, it would appear that the highway is not divided at all.

A series of views looking westerly from the Cemetery Sideroad overpass.  The upper photo shows a very early morning view of the newly divided section of highway before construction had been completed.  The upper photo was taken very soon after eastbound and westbound traffic were separated onto their own separate carriageways.  The lower photos were the following summer once construction activities had been completed.

Upper photo taken: September 19th, 2011.

Two views from the Cemetery Sideroad overpass.  The upper photo looks into the early morning sky along the recently divided highway.  While the low light levels of the early morning sky amplify the morning sky, the low contrast doesn't show the newly divided highway in particularly great detail.  The lower photo shows the completed highway.

Upper photo taken: September 19th, 2011.

(1440x960)
City of Ottawa Highway 7 meets Hazeldean Road at a full six-ramp partial cloverleaf interchange.  Eastern Region seems quite keen on building six ramp interchanges even in rural areas.  Several of the new interchanges along the 2004 opened 417 extension featured six ramp interchanges as well.

City of Ottawa View looking westerly from Hazeldean Road.  Hazeldean Road (and its eastern extension, Richmond Road) carried Highway 7 into Ottawa before Highway 417 was extended westerly through Kanata.

City of Ottawa Second round of advanced signage for the Highway 417 interchange.  Highway 416 used to have an overhead assembly similar to this, this use of the advanced arrow appears unique to the Ottawa area.  I have included a great shot from Josh Anderchek showing the previous advanced signage for Highway 417-East taken before Highway 7 was four-laned.

City of Ottawa Gore signage at the split.  The new signage has been very nice to this point, though I can't say the same about this overhead.  The ramp to Highway 417-East will be widened to two lanes in the future once Highway 417 is widened all the way through Kanata, presumably this is why the decision was made to not match the sign designs here.
