Tourist destinations which operate on or near Brampton roads can apply for directional road signs under the Tourism Oriented Destination Signage (TODS) program. If you are an eligible tourism operator, and if sign space exists, you can apply for up to 4 signs bearing your operation's name, a generic symbol (or in some cases your corporate logo) and directional information.
To place signs on Ontario’s 400-series highways, review the provincial requirements,
