Signs will show travel times to Toronto drivers

The City has announced that overhead electronic signs will display travel-time messages for Toronto motorists during pilot project. Real-time travel information will be shown on the City’s variable-message signs similar to the type of display shown inset from the U.S. Signs located on the Gardiner Expressway, the Don Valley Parkway and Lake Shore Boulevard will display the travel time to various points along these key roadways. On some signs, travel times for both the Gardiner Expressway and Lake Shore Boulevard will be posted, providing motorists with information needed to make choices about which roads to travel on to get to their destination. Eleven signs are currently in place to provide travel-time information. An additional seven electronic signs will be installed this year.
