Highway Hotline is doing away with the white and switching up some of its terminology to make this clearer before the snow sets in.
“The Highway Hotline is used millions of times throughout the year to help travelers plan ahead,” Highways Minister Lori Carr said. “These changes will help drivers make an informed decision while having better consistency with our neighbouring provinces and national standards.”
According to the news release the new primary conditions include:
- Bare – Road appears black, means all wheels of a passenger vehicle are on a bare surface.
- Partly Covered – Road appears yellow, means two wheels of a passenger vehicle are on a snow or ice-covered surface.
- Covered – Road appears pink, means all wheels of the vehicle are on snow or ice.
- Travel Not Recommended – Road appears blue, means that visibility is less than 250 metres and could become impassable.
- Closed – Road appears red, means the highway is impassable.
They highlighted the change to a dotted line to indicate poor visibility.
