MTO must use official wording for road names as identified by municipalities. Only when these names are bilingual, as identified by municipal resolution/by-law, and installed on municipal roads, are bilingual road names provided on provincial highway signs. Other information (e.g. – cardinal directions, “Next Exit”, etc.) on the provincial highway sign is bilingual.
