This season’s street lining process is underway.
This year, the City will be using a new kind of paint that dries in a minute, weather permitting.
It eliminates the need to use traffic cones around newly painted lines, which reduces the impact on traffic and makes cleanup easier.
The line painting program has already begun in the uptown core and will extend to other areas of the City based on priority.
The annual program covers approximately 410 lane kilometres across the City and is expected to continue until early fall.
To ensure the safety of crews and allow the paint to dry properly, motorists are asked to respect the street line painting truck distances and to not cut in between the street line painting truck and the support vehicle tailing behind.
Cones may still be used in select areas depending on traffic density.
