That space has been left for a HOV lane, which won't open until other phases of the collector-express widening project in Mississauga is done. This is phase 1 and it's only about 2km long so it would be little silly to enter and exit a HOV lane for such a short distance.
Phase 2 won't start until the 'beyond 2016' timeframe so expect just 2 express lanes for about a decade until the HOV lanes open.
