History

Dougall Parkway was constructed as one of the two western forks of Highway 401 in the mid-1950s, connecting Highway 401 with Highway 3B (Howard Avenue).[6] Somewhat confusingly, Dougall Parkway was officially numbered as Highway 401 along with the other leg of the fork, with Dougall Parkway being the north leg.[7]

In 2008 to 2010, as part of the reconstruction of the section of Highway 401 from Dougall Parkway to Provincial Road, the Dougall Parkway split with Highway 401 was reconfigured, replacing a one-lane 1950s-era underpass tunnel with a modern high-speed flyover ramp.[8]
