The ministry is moving on a number of measures, including: • Stricter commercial vehicle chain-up requirements: higher fines for commer- cial vehicles not carrying chains, or not chaining up when required. • a pilot program to restrict commer- cial vehicles from using the far left lane on key three-lane highway sections in the winter, to ensure routes remain open to snow plows, emergency vehicles and passenger vehicles. • investing $1.8 million over the next 3 years in additional weather stations and overhead message signs to provide better real-time weather & road condition info. • enhanced road-maintenance con- tractor monitoring and auditing, leverag- ing new tools and technology, like road weather stations, variable speed limit sys- tems, and GpS tracking of snow plows. • extending winter tire and chain reg- ulations on select highways from oct. 1 to april 30 (instead of march 31).
