The widening was part of a project extending Lawrence Avenue West west across the Humber River, and linking it with Dixon Road via a widened Scarlett Road. Visible on one of the photographs are Hall's Drugs, Dixon's Snack bar and a Supertest service station, all at the corner of Scarlett and Dixon roads.
