      Historique

      The Historical Research Section of the Ontario Department of Highways was established in 1964. The head of the Section was N.D. Bennet, formerly the Regional Services Manager for the Central Region of the Department. The section reported to the Assistant Deputy Minister of Administration until 1968, when it became part of the Information Section within the Office of the Executive Engineer.

      The Historical Research Section built upon work previously conducted by W.J. Fulton for his paper Evolution of the Road. Fulton, whose paper was presented at the CGRA Conference in 1961, was Deputy Minister of the Ontario Department of Highways from 1957 to 1962.

      The Historical Research Section was disbanded in 1970.
