Highway 402 driving eastbound at the Front Street interchange. Front
Street is the first full interchange east of the Blue Water Bridge, and is
the main access route into both Downtown Sarnia and Point Edward. Front
Street was the last interchange to be constructed on Highway 402.
Before 1982, Front Street met Highway 402 at an at-grade intersection.

Looking east from Christina Street along Highway 402. The Christina
Street overpass was the first grade-separation constructed on Highway 402.
The overpass was completed in 1952; prior to that Highway 402 had been
entirely an at-grade highway.

Looking west from the Indian Line overpass towards the Bluewater Bridge.
In the distance of this photo, notice Highway 402 crossing over Sarnia's
Colborne Street. This was the second structure constructed on Highway
402 (completed in 1957) and today features extremely poor sightlines. Fortunately this
situation should be rectified during upcoming border improvements.

Looking east along Highway 402 from the Indian Line overpass. The
interchange at Indian Line was constructed in 1970, as part of a larger
project to construct grade separations throughout the City of Sarnia.
A precursor to the extension of Highway 402 towards London.

Highway 402 looking west from the Murphy Road overpass in Sarnia. This
picture showcases the Indian Road interchange. Despite being of a
fairly standard parclo-A configuration, Indian Road is somewhat of an odd
design. In the early 90s, the SB-WB directional ramp from Indian Line
to Highway 402 was removed, thus converting a 6-ramp parclo into a 5-ramp
interchange.

Looking east from the Murphy Road overpass in Sarnia. In this picture,
you can see the start of the by-pass that was constructed in the early-1970s as
a precursor to Highway 402 being extended easterly to London. Before
this, Highway 402 continued straight towards Highway 7 (now Lambton Road 22),
before narrowing to a conventional 2-lane highway.

East of Airport Road, Highway 402 drivers must negotiate a fairly sharp
S-curve. East of this curve, Highway 402 has a much larger grassed
median, and is virtually dead straight all of the way to Strathroy.
