# Nova Scotia Highway 107

Highway 107 in Nova Scotia runs through the eastern suburbs of the Halifax Regional Municipality, from Bedford, Nova Scotia to an intersection with Trunk 7 in Musquodoboit Harbour. It is 52.1 km (32.4 mi) long.

## Route description

The highway begins in Bedford at Highway 102, travels southeast to the Burnside Industrial Park in Dartmouth, then continues east to an interchange with Highway 118. From there, it continues southeast to an intersection of Main Street in Dartmouth and Trunk 7 in Westphal. The highway then travels east, concurrent with Trunk 7, through the Sunset Acres neighbourhood in Westphal and the community of Cherry Brook for about 5 km (3.1 mi). Near Preston, Highway 107 and Trunk 7 split, and Highway 107 continues eastward as a controlled access two-lane highway for the remainder of its route. The highway travels past the communities of Preston, Lake Echo, Porters Lake and Head of Chezzetcook before reaching its eastern terminus with Trunk 7 west of Musquodoboit Harbour.

## History
### Dartmouth to Musquodoboit Harbour section

Construction of the highway began in 1972/73. The first segment, running from Trunk 7 to Mineville Road, opened to traffic during the 1975/76 fiscal year. At that time a further extension of the road, across Lake Echo, was under construction.
Grading work for the final segment from Head of Chezzetcook (exit 20) to Musquodoboit Harbour began in 1986/87.

### Dartmouth Bypass / Forest Hills Extension

The section of Highway 107 between Trunk 7 (at Forest Hills) and Highway 118 has also been known as the Dartmouth Bypass, or Forest Hills Extension. The first section of the bypass (from Trunk 7 to the interchange at Montague Road) opened to traffic in 1985/86. The remaining section, connecting to Highway 118, opened in 1986/87.
A short extension to Akerley Boulevard in the Burnside Industrial Park was constructed in the early 1990s.

### Burnside/Sackville extension

The section from Akerley Boulevard, along the southwestern side of Anderson Lake, to Exit 4C on Highway 102 opened to traffic on December 20, 2024. This extension, known locally as the Burnside Expressway, allows commuters from Halifax and Burnside heading to Sackville to bypass the Bedford Bypass and Windmill Road and instead go through Burnside and connect directly into Sackville. The western terminus includes connections to Highway 102, Duke Street and Glendale Avenue. New exits were also constructed at Akerley Boulevard, Burnside Drive, and at a future connection near Anderson Lake.
