Something I'm curious about is how often people find or come across courtesy corners (intersections where there is no traffic control device, like a stop sign,...
North-end St. Catharines is filled with them. In fact, it's the most common type of intersection you'll find in residential areas of the North End. From:...
There used to be many of them in Oshawa in residential areas - some have been replaced with yield and stop control over the past 10 years. Most of Kingston's...
... They're less common in Ottawa than they were before my city became VERY intent on erecting and maintaining signs, but they still exist, mostly as three-way...
... While certainly not a courteous corner, we have a weird (from the perspective of control devices) intersection here in Renfrew. The corner of Lochiel St N...
... I came here to post this. There are a bunch south of the QEW too. The DriveTest centre takes you through an uncontrolled intersection or two on your G1...
I live in a town full of them. The six corners closest to my house have no control. They're all T intersections though so by knowing the area you would know...
What's more interesting is that while St. Catharines is absolutely full of uncontrolled intersections, Niagara Falls will put yield signs up at the end of even...
Let's say this intersection is represented by the letter T, and the straight-through movement is from the top right of the T to the bottom and vice versa. In...
... While they may seem to act the same, they don't. I'll use the example of an all-way stop by comparison. With a courtesy corner, the general "law" of it is...
There is something similar at Bridgeland and Caledonia in Toronto. Here's how it goes ... EB Bridgeland - Stop Sign WB Bridgeland - Stop Sign NB Caledonia - no...
... This is similar to what Hamilton does, like here: http://tinyurl.com/auv9ku SB coming off the Jolley Cut (labelled "Vola Ct") toward concession has right...
... Yeah that was a good one. SB "downhill" priority iirc. Another so-called "courtesy corner" I found recently that is close to me, is Coe Hill Drive & The...
My first time driving to Newmarket in a few weeks, and made an observance. York Region previously had signed Regional Road 31 (former KH9) on the green signs...
We have a fair bit of these in Thunder Bay on local residential streets at 3-way intersections. However, they are often mixed in with similar localized...
1. The last of the historic ER poles are now removed from the bridge in Mississauga. 2. Gantries with HOV signage are being prepared in Oakville and lie in the...
Actually, the original ramp is still considered the 'main' Niagara Street ramp and is projected to become the busiest QEW ramp over the next few years. The...
I uploaded some Ontario roads videos on my YouTube account, filmed last Sunday on a drive back to Upstate New York from Michigan. These have not been edited...
... Great videos. I enjoy this stuff. Can't wait for more Ontario videos. There's a lot of good stuff up on youtube now. This guy's videos are pretty well done...
I noticed something similat to this in Bowmanville. Sections of the former KH2 and current Durham Hwy 2 through Bowmanville are simply signed as "King Street"...
The former Highway 2 is under Clarington's jurisdiction from Regional Road 57 to Haines St. in Bowmanville, as well as a short section from North St. to 500m...
I had thought those old type angular arrow (the ones you'd most often see in the 70s/80s/early 90s on BGS/BBS along with "2 LANES") had been officially...
YAAAHOOOOO! The day has finally come. The 4-laning in the northeast corner of Thunder Bay WILL include a full Parclo A4 interchange at Hodder Avenue, which is...
On Tue, Mar 24, 2009 at 3:39 AM, Richard Kannegiesser ... Well, it's about time you did something with that short freeway section! But looking at the plans...
With all the talk about 4-laning, we need to also look at a way of making busy single lane highways that cannot be prioritized for full four-laning safer and...
That gantry was the target of graffiti about 1/2 year ago, when they targetted the middle sign. In your picture you linked, the middle sign has already been...
I see animal crossings as a huge problem, as you're now throwing in a barrier to wildlife trying to cross. Not all wildlife is going to notice the gaps far...
I've thought of this too, so tall walls are probably only ideal where there is already cliffs on either side of the highway (where it's already impossible for...
