Route B would have been the best in my opinion.

400-series highways, by design, were meant to bypass centers of population. The 401 did that in London, and this 402 route would have as well at the time. You'd have nice growth along this corridor and a good way for people who want to travel from one end of the city to the other.

The current 402 route doesn't even bypass the city since it wasn't even in the city limits when it was built. In addition, it didn't even interchange with any city roads (Wonderland Road interchange wasn't built yet and Highway 4 serviced Lambeth).

Simply put, this was a huge loss for the city, arguably the biggest 'fail' our fair city ever made.



By the way, where did you find that picture?
