Easterly view along Highway 7 approaching the former Highway 7B junction
leading into Carlton Place. While the green sign indicates the former
Highway 7B has been redesignated as County Road 29, Lanark County has posted
a County Road 7B reassurance

This view looks easterly at the McNeely Avenue intersection. McNeely
Avenue is the eastern by-pass of Downtown Carleton Place. Highway 15
briefly followed McNeely Avenue before the highway was transferred to the
County of Lanark and City of Ottawa north of Carleton Place in 1998. Photo taken: June 30th, 2012. |

Two views looking westerly towards the Signalized intersection with McNeely

Two views of
Highway 7 as seen from just east of the McNeely Avenue (old Highway
15-North) intersection in Carleton Place. The upper photo shows
Highway 7 narrowing into a single carriageway, while the lower photos show
the transition from Highway 7's urban cross-section within Carleton Place to
a four-lane freeway. Upper photo taken: October 23rd, 2004. Middle photo taken: September 19th, 2011. Lower photo taken: June 30th, 2012. |

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. |

Township of Beckwith County of Lanark |
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. Photo taken: September 19th, 2011. |

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. Lower photos taken: June 30th, 2012. |

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. Lower photo taken: June 30th, 2012. |

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. Photo taken: September 12th, 2009. |

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. Photo taken: September 12th, 2009. |

Diagram signage in advance of the Highway 417 interchange. The
left-lane defaults westerly along the 417 towards Arnprior. The
right-most lane follows Highway 417-East towards Ottawa. Photo taken: September 19th, 2011. |

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. Upper photo taken by: Josh Anderchek, on August 8th, 2007. Lower photo taken: September 19th, 2011. |

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. Upper photo taken: October 23rd, 2004. Lower photo taken: September 19th, 2011. |
