Abstract
This document presents all the standards of the ministère des Transports, de la Mobilité durable et de l’Électrification des transports regarding the signage for off highway vehicle trails.
These standards, which are mandatory under subsection 14.2 of the Act respecting off highway vehicles, have the purpose of establishing the manufacturing and erection requirements for signs on off-highway vehicle (OHV) trails. They were developed in collaboration with the Fédération des clubs de motoneigistes du Québec (FCMQ) and the Fédération québécoise des clubs quads (FQCQ). They make it possible to standardize signage of these trails in order to make the signs and signals easier to understand, increase the safety of OHV users and facilitate their traffic on the routes reserved for them or that they must share with other classes of users.
This document is a complete tool, indispensable to the persons responsible for erection and maintenance of signage on off-highway vehicle trails, both at the Ministère and in the municipalities or organizations concerned. It is also addressed to OHV enthusiasts who want to perfect their knowledge in this matter.
