The City’s portable units are rotated throughout each ward on a monthly basis throughout the year. You can suggest a location by requesting a sign using the online form at the top of this page or through your local Councillor’s office. Local Councillors, the City’s Transportation Services staff and the Toronto Police Service also issue requests for these signs. The equipment is for information purposes only and does not issue speeding tickets.
To request Mobile WYSP for your street, complete and submit the online form.
The Mobile WYSP uses devices called speed display signs or driver feedback signs which contain a radar device and an LED display. These signs are installed against an existing hydro pole or streetlight and no longer require the space of trailers previously used for installations. The radar measures the speeds of oncoming vehicles and the LED sign displays their speeds to the passing motorists, thereby reminding them to check their speeds and to obey speed limits.
Each location is assessed by City staff using a set of criteria. A location may also be ineligible for Mobile WYSP due to site specific considerations other than those listed below. Staff will attempt to install WYSP at the suggested location/address, but an alternative location/address may be placed if the suggested location/address is not favourable.
Signs will be placed for 2-3 weeks in each location.
The personal information you are asked to provide is collected under the authority of the City of Toronto Act, 2006, s. 136©. The information is used by District Traffic Operations and Watch Your Speed Program staff of the Transportation Services Division to contact you to advise you of the eligibility of your requested location for the Watch Your Speed Program.
