I guess they don't want people to note that this will be a 're-upload' since it used to be Hwy 17.Ontario Newsroom

Ontario will also upload 174 in Ottawa.
Any bets now on whether the Linc/RHVP and E.C. ROW are up next? The province is already paying for a new interchange on the EC ROW..
The big reason for the upload is because many of the bridges are reaching EOL and need replacing, something that is very expensive and Ottawa doesn't have the money for. This is basically a gift for the city similar to uploading the Gardiner.I guess they don't want people to note that this will be a 're-upload' since it used to be Hwy 17.
I'm a wee bit surprised of the timing. I would have thought this - and maybe the two you cite, would be announced during a municipal election or held for the next provincial ones.

Unless E.C Row and RHVP have similar issues I don't see them being uploaded.
