427 S just before eglinton exit

Concrete is cut very badly, a square was cut out of the road and when I went over it it felt like my *** fell 3ft onto a concrete floor. Watch out!
 
427N from the Queensway is also pretty bad. In some lanes the "seam" of concrete between one lane and the other and sometimes in the same lane can be 2" high. Get a wheel caught in that during a lane change and it could be bad.
 
I've been avoiding that stretch of 427 (Eglinton to QEW both ways) since the construction has started in the late spring. The pavement is destroyed (except for B-thorpe -> Eglinton NB collector), the traffic is like a parking lot due to closed lanes, lane marking gets changed/moved every couple of weeks.

Same here, i normally commute to work on the 427 up to north of the airport, but the last month the roads are horrible, the south side is all torn up/milled, and the northbound lanes and collectors have all sorts of gaps and mismatched pavement. It's ridiculous. I've been taking the long slow way up Kipling lately and it sucks.

Been doing the same thing lately. All the way up from North Queen.

One of my coworkers got a flat in the cage from the mis-matched lane paving.

I seem to be doing just fine on the 427... haven't really felt anything extremely offkey. Except for bumps, there seems to be a lot of bumps.
