Also, Eglinton Avenue West would be narrowed from a point 5.0 metres east of W. R. Allen Road (northbound on-ramp) to a point 40.0 metres further east.
The proposed road construction and lane designation will provide for a double westbound right-turn lane from Eglinton Avenue West to the northbound W.R. Allen Road.
