Pavement markings get fresh coat of paint
April 24, 2025 - 7:00am
Crews have started repainting pavement markings to ensure we can all safely get around our city.
Pavement marking work started earlier this month with repainting crosswalks in school zones and residential neighbourhoods.
In the coming weeks, crews will be out refreshing pavement markings such as traffic lane lines, edge lines, centre lines, arrows and cycling symbols.
Please use caution and take care when you encounter a painting crew on the road. They’re not blocking your path – they’re making a safer one. Let’s do our part to keep them safe, too, and respect work zones.
