Andrewpmk (almost entirely him) and I reversed all of the ON prefixes to the 400-Series highways, but provincial highways and regional/county roads still retain their prefixes. Personally I don't think there should be any prefix for rendering or navigation purposes, but I guess it depends on whether you think county or regional road prefixes should be there for navigation or rendering purposes. -Kevin (Kevo) -Kevin Farrugia [email protected] On Fri, Jun 26, 2015 at 7:36 AM, Daniel Begin <[email protected]> wrote: > AFAIK, it has never been discussed at least on this forum.
