Right to 10 lanes. The MTO doesn't go half-way with highway widenings, even when sometimes they arguably should.
I expect it be:
10 lanes from the highway 8 junction, where the 4 lanes of highway 8 merely merge up with the 6 lanes of the 401,
1 lane each way will likely (exit to/enter from) Hespeler, and
the remaining lanes will merge into the 401 just east of Hespeler
There's preliminary planning going on to extend the 10 lanes to Townline Rd, but that's not in the near-term funding scope.
