This makes it easier for municipalities to reduce enforceable speed limits.
Once designated by an authorized individual, a construction zone must be marked with signs in accordance with the regulation.

It’s summertime! While we all race outdoors to enjoy everything warm weather brings, it’s good to be prepared to safely enjoy summer activities.
Keep cool and hydrated and minimize your time in the sun between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. Drink plenty of water, find shade, visit cool buildings, slow down, bathe in cool water and wear light-coloured clothing.
Never leave children or pets inside a parked car. When the outside air temperature is 23 degrees Celsius, the temperature inside a vehicle can be extremely dangerous – more than 50 degrees Celsius.
