The city is trying out some new traffic marking technologies over the summer.
They’re looking at ways to make the white lines and arrows painted on the pavement last longer.
Two new technologies are now installed at the intersection of Rothesay Avenue and McAllister Drive for a trial run.
One is 3M marking tape and the other is a material known as “Thermoplastic”.
Both are supposed to last for close to 3 years, whereas traditional water-based paints only last for 4 months to one year in areas that get snow.
