Second diagram sign for the roundabout intersection, this sign only
highlighting control cities. This fashion of indicating control city
information on a secondary diagram sign is also used on the
Arthur Street (Old
Highway 86) roundabout near St. Jacob's, in the Region of
Waterloo. MTO worked closely with the Region of Waterloo during the
implementation of the Highway 33 roundabout.

Centreline view of the roundabout -- looking easterly. Note that the
landscaping in the centre island hides view of Highway 33 continuing
easterly towards Picton. This is an important example of positive
guidance -- a driver is much less likely to notice the circular roadway
roundabout if they can see oncoming traffic approaching in the distance.

Closeup of the fingerboard sign for Sandy Hook Road. Several design
elements of the Highway 33 roundabout are atypical of highway design in
Ontario. First, concrete surfaced centre islands are very atypical,
usually MTO specifies asphalt pavement. Also, signs mounted using
square steel post systems mounted on a pedestal base is a departure from the
standard u-channel post sign mount. These design elements appear to be
borrowed from the Region of Waterloo design specifications.
