I've been going to Windsor a lot this year, and the stretch through Chatham sucks. The pavement is really not in good shape, very bumpy unless you're in a big SUV or something. I read there is a plan to rebuild the roadbed.
Why not just use this as an opportunity to widen the highway as well? All the overpasses seem to be ready to support a 6 lane cross section and the land is flat so it should be relatively easy.
-Also, one of the 2 rail overpasses isn't being used anymore, so that saves rebuilding one of them... Just fill it in or take out the dirt entirely.
A lot of trucks use this stretch too and being behind a truck passing another truck like 1km/h slower just plain sucks.
