Ontario Highway Traffic Act

Hi

Please help settle a good-natured argument among friends.

MY FRIEND says that municipalities are OBLIGATED by the Province to post "begins" and "ends" signs to physically delimit Community Safety Zones (so-called "CSZ's").

I on the other hand, think that municipalities need only identify active CSZ's in the "Schedule" portion of their CSZ ...

Hi Racer

As per your suggestion --and although I'm a returning member rather than new-- I'm just saying "Hi" to other members old and new.

As a recently-retired boomer with no specific training or experience pertaining to the HTA, folks looking for that kind of help might elect to seek the advice of others. But nearly 45 years on the road does ...
