A new proposal has been submitted to consider regulatory amendments that will implement new Automated Flagger Assistance Devices (AFAD) provisions of the Moving Ontarians More Safely Act. This includes added provisions to Regulation 606 – Portable Lane Control Signal Systems under the Highway Traffic Act (HTA) which will assist in traffic control and enable enforcement of AFAD in construction zones.

The goal of these proposed changes is intended to support increased road safety.

Comments on the proposed regulation are due back by December 7th, 2021 to the Ministry of Transportation (MTO) by email.
