Information & Guide Signs
Trans-Canada Highway Shield
The green maple-leaf shield marks the route of the Trans-Canada Highway across Alberta.
What This Sign Means
Route markers identify numbered highways so you can navigate without street names. The Trans-Canada (Highway 1) crosses Alberta through Medicine Hat, Calgary, and Banff.
What You Should Do
Use route shields to confirm you're on the right highway, especially through interchanges where routes split.
Knowledge Test Tip
Guide and route signs are green or have distinct shields. Green = direction and distance information.
