Weston and Lawrence
Weston and Lawrence in the early 60s or so. Note the sharp rise arms with the clamshells (arms and clamshells both killed off by HPS), the cable stayed arms for the CGE signals, the neon NO LEFT TURN signs, and finally the neon WALK/DONT WALK lights. The neon pedestrian signals are still largely a mystery to me, I know they were used during the late 50s and early 60s but it seemed the incandescent CGE peds killed them off.

Nice, good that you found the intersection Very Happy Its the same intersection that I posted just a different spot I had no idea what street it was though Laughing Razz Those arms on the clamshell on the left are still in use today in some parts of Mississauga

The newest car I can find here is 1962.

Yeah, I also also have a ton of these old pics saved on my computer. I've also found evidence that the Form 109 was used in Toronto at one point.
