This new trafficâ€"actuated control system has been adopted by the Deâ€" partment of Highways for Ontario and its use will be standardized throughout the province at heavy traffic intersecâ€" tions as an important step in the Deâ€" partment‘s new highway safety proâ€" gramme. as well as two intersocting highway that are thoroughfares for a heavy flow of tourist motor traffic to and from Canada and the United States.
