Why does MoT used the electronic message signs and how are they used?
These signs, referred to as “changeable message signs” (CMS) are used throughout the province to communicate road conditions such as construction activities, closures, weather related conditions, traffic accidents etc. that may affect the travel time and route selection for motorists. The CMS signs may also display the occasional public safety message such as the “Amber Alert” messages in cooperation with the RCMP.
