You can also call them, and they will send you free paper maps. A friend of mine works there (the main tourist building is in Barrie) and she gets calls from all over Ontario. Of course, maybe that's tourism and not MTO ... but maybe they are related. A funny one was when someone asked her for a map of "downtown" Renfrew. It's all of 5 blocks. :D You can get a whole street map of the town on one side of a sheet.
It's like when I talk about "downtown" Carp... it's all of like 5 buildings! Always good for a laugh. So, are you saying that Renfrew gets tourists? hahhaaha....
There's actually a tourist *caboose* on the outside of Renfrew near highway 17. I'm not sure if anyone actually goes to it. They should have painted the water tower like a can of soda when they had the chance! That would have attraced 'em like flies!

Can I get street maps for each municipality of Ontario through the Transportation Ministry?
ReplyDeleteI don't know, and from the looks of things, I don't think so.
ReplyDeleteI'd use google maps now... very easy to find places and directions in great detail. ;-)
Each provincial department of transportation has map products available. What are such products and how do I obtain them?
ReplyDeleteI honestly have no idea Peter...
