      Historique

      The Department of Public Highways was established in 1915 on the recommendations of the Public Roads and Highways Commission (also known as the Good Roads Commission). The department continued the functions of the Highways Branch (also known as the Office of the Commissioner of Highways).

      Although established as a separate department, the Department of Public Highways shared ministers with the Department of Public Works and seems to have been in a quasi-subordinate relationship with this department.

      In 1917, the Provincial Highway Act was passed, giving the department authority to maintain and construct leading roads throughout the province as Provincial highways (designated King's highways in 1930).

      In 1931, the Department of Public Highways was given its own Minister, and renamed the Ontario Department of Highways.
