Note: A major revision of the
overall design of the map occurred in this year. The mileage tables
were removed in favor of a mileage chart, the overall size of the map was
reduced in width, the regulatory sign area was redesigned and the map was
given a brighter, cleaner look. The "trillium in the oval"
provincial logo made it's debut on the map cover along with the "Province
of Opportunity" slogan. The yellow tinge was removed as the main
background color of Ontario, the reference markings around the perimeter
of the map were made alternating colors for ease of use and the blue
border on the rear cover was removed.
