Experience Wawa Highway Signs and Website Launched

The Municipality of Wawa has replaced several signs across Northern Ontario - to direct travelers to a new tourism-oriented website.

Community Services and Tourism Assistant Director Brian Lachine explains the change in highway signage stems from a couple problems with the older signs, which were either in poor condition or had information that was old and not useful.

Lachine says the "Experience Wawa" website links to various social media, but also provides information on things like hotels and restaurants - with work underway on specialized "itineraries".
