• Wondering why HRM installs signs where they do?
• Interested in knowing if a specific intersection warrants an all-way stop or marked crosswalk?

• Thinking maybe an intersection should have traffic signals?
• Planning a parade?

HRM's Traffic Control Practices and Warrants outlines the specific requirements for traffic control devices such as signs, signals and pavement markings.  Before contacting HRM about your specific issue you can find the specific device you're interested in and read up on our policy.  For example, if you click on 'Traffic Control Signs', it will take you to an index of commonly requested signs which we have policies for.   Click on the sign you want (i.e. Stop Sign) to read the policy.

Who to contact if you have questions or wish to make a request.
