The municipality will be installing over 150 bilingual stop signs at intersections around Conseil scolaire acadien provincial (CSAP) schools starting the week of March 6, 2023.
The municipality plans to have most of these stop signs installed in time to celebrate International Francophonie Day on March 20. International Francophone Day and Francophonie Month are a time to celebrate the French language and diverse Francophone cultures in our region and across the world.
In July 2022, Regional Council provided direction to support the installation of bilingual stop signs, including endorsing community or group applications to the province’s bilingual stop signs program.
The council-provided direction on installation of bilingual stop signs extends the reach of the province’s bilingual stop sign program to include communities, neighbourhoods or near facilities on municipal roads that are able to demonstrate the importance of Acadian culture and history, and/or the importance of the French language, to their social, linguistic and cultural identity.
