23. The central municipality’s exclusive jurisdiction over the thoroughfares identified covers road maintenance and management, including snow removal, signs and signals, and traffic and parking regulation.
However, it does not include the power to institute penal proceedings for contravening a provision of a by-law, a resolution or an order that concerns traffic or parking on such a thoroughfare. The related municipality in whose territory the contravention is committed may institute proceedings even if, in the case of a reconstituted municipality, the by-law, resolution or order was not adopted by the council or executive committee.
