An extension to the the proposed Mid-Peninsula Highway south of East Main Street is currently under review. This section will initially be built as a 2-lane highway, and later upgraded to a full freeway as traffic counts warrant. Once that is planned out, the kilometre posts will change as the extension is southward.
† Exits are not currently numbered on Highway 406.
