Expressway Casements (EXC) Coordinate system: 4326 - "WGS 84" Abstract: This layer contains expressway casements across Canada. Casements are buffers of all road segments containing street name and uniqueID of road buffered. This includes expressways and 400 series highways, e.g. Highway 401, Don Valley Parkway. Note: In 2012, there was a datum change from NAD83 to WGS84.
