"Oh, good Lord! A highwayman!" -J.L. Picard

Sign indicating the re-designation of Gospel Mission Road to Highway 124. Gospel Mission Road is a former alignment of Highway 11 that runs parallel to the new Hwy 11 freeway from the north end of the Sundridge-South River bypass to the Goreville Road/Summit Road interchange (the next one northerly). As of my last visit up that way there was no signage southbound indicating that Highway 124 ran along there, save this one above. At the southern end the junction of Highway 11 does show 124 going in both directions.Photo taken November 2011

A video I took last month of the new section of Highway 11 at Sundridge/South River, prior to it opening. I was there on work business so I took the opportunity to record some (shaky) footage.
