Will somebody drive to Oph27 and take pictures of the Super-4 portion so that we can see pictures of a 4-lane undivided freeway? --SuperDude 03:01, 25 July 2005 (UTC)Reply

This route does not appear in the traffic counts, nor on the official highway map. It seems that the MTO no longer uses this number for whatever small part they may own. --NE2 03:17, 7 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

The article lists this as a 2-mile MTO stub and the template at the bottom of the page has the whole thing decommissioned? Which is it? K7L (talk) 03:02, 10 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

It's a stub, which should be mentioned right off the bat... but in my opinion the article should cover the highway as it was prior to 1997, as the stub is very very minor... same with Highway 2 and Highway 20 which are similar situations. - Floydian τ ¢ 17:29, 10 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
{{Ontario King's Highways}} lists 27 in "former Ontario highways" and 2 in "current highways". This seems arbitrary if a stub still legally exists for both roads. I thought 2 was fixed (two distance charts, 1926 and 1998) but 20 is missing historic distances to Hamilton and 3 is simply incomplete. If 27 is even a stub, though, it should go back into "current highways" in the template. K7L (talk) 18:04, 10 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
Agreed. I haven't gotten to many of the highways yet, so some articles are just a mess (should've seen them 2 or 3 years ago though!). I've got a copy (digital and physical) of the 1989 distance tables, which more or less covers everything at the peak extent of the highway network. I'll try and fill in some of those historic distances when I have an opportunity. - Floydian τ ¢ 01:35, 11 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
