If you choose to go via Sudbury you are dealing with 2 lane highway from S.S. Marie to about 35 km. west of Sudbury. Other than that piece and a short stretch between Sudbury and Parry Sound it is divided highway for the rest of the trip.
There is some construction on The Q.E.W. in Burlington just before the junction with Hwy. 403. The backup can be as far back as Appleby Line starting around noon to the end of the afternoon rush hour. If you don't mind the outrageous toll charges, and are under 5,000 kg. registered gross weight, you can avoid most of the Toronto traffic and the Q.E.W. construction by taking the 407 toll highway from Hwy. 400 to the Q.E.W. It will probably be around $20 to $25 depending on the time of day. They take a picture of your plate when you enter and exit and bill you by mail. If you are over 5,000 kg. don't even think about using the 407 without a transponder. Out of province people do get billed as well. 407/ETR
