Windsor city council to study LED signage

A company looking to install an LED sign near Walker Road and the E.C. Row Expressway will have to wait.

Pattison Signs came before council a month ago pitching a pilot project to put a 10x35 foot LED sign at the 3,100 block of Walker Road.

But council balked at the proposal after administration raised concerns over public safety.

Council will instead do its own study looking at LED signage in other municipalities.

That should take 12 months.

Urban planner Adam Coates says the city needs to update its existing policy to catch up with the times.
