Sarnia Council will receive an update on the city's existing traffic signal synchronization Monday. City Engineer Andre Morin has prepared a report and says as technology improves, the ability for Sarnia to have a system where traffic signals can be monitored at a single location or computer laptop is becoming more affordable. Mayor Mike Bradley says synchronization has been an ongoing issue.
