    Historique

    The Communications and Public Education Branch of the Ontario Ministry of Transportation was formed in 1987, assuming the functions of the Public and Safety Information Branch. The agency, initially known as the Communications Services Branch, reported to the Deputy Minister of Transportation and Communications. In 1989, the branch changed its name to the Communications Branch and was transferred to the Public Safety Education and Information Division. The branch became known as the Communications and Public Education Branch in 1991 and was shifted to the Customer Services and Communications Division. The Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Transportation resumed administrative responsibility for the branch in 1992.

    In 1996 the corporate communications function of the Communications and Public Education Branch was transferred and combined with the corporate policy function in a new branch called the Corporate Policy and Communications Branch in the Policy and Planning Division. The distinct public education activities of the Communications and Public Education Branch were discontinued in 1996.
