Railway Crossings

Highway 406 is unique, having the only at-grade railway crossing of any 400 series highway. The Trillium Railway spur is just south of the Woodlawn Road intersection.

Future Plans

An extension to the proposed Mid-Peninsula Highway south of East Main Street is currently under review. This section will initially be built as a 2-lane highway, and later upgraded to a full freeway as traffic counts warrant. Once that is planned out, the kilometre posts will change as the extension is southward. ^† Exits are not currently numbered on Highway 406. 406
