Much as {{ jct}} has extra symbols for intermodal transportation facilities and hospitals, I feel that extra icons should be added to this template for intersections or interchanges that lead to features such as airports or hospitals. The following would be the symbols that should be added to the template:
Is there a way these five extra icons can be added to this template? Dough 4872 00:26, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Hi, given that the provincial section is now open could you try to figure out how to replace the Highway 407 logo used in the jcon template; or better one rename the current one from 407 to 407ETR whilst the new one would be 407. This is the current logo used throughout:
; and this is what I would want to have it replaced with:
. Any idea on how to do this?

Altering edit request to the {{

variant. Unless I'm mistaken that template should be used in this case. If anything, those who monitor it should be more informed template-wise that those monitoring the other list. I'm afraid the request may have ended up sitting for some time on the COI list and would have a better chance if it were listed under templates instead of COI. Hope this helps.

I notice that Ottawa roads are still displaying as 'Regional Road #' (where # is the road number) when using the template. Is there any possibility of changing that to display 'Ottawa Road #' instead? Also, is there a way to display Ottawa Road shields for this template as well? Thanks.

I've been doing some recent work and noticed that Template:Jcon is less functionality than Template:Jct, desipite its stated purpose of being an enhancement to Template:Jct within the Ontario context. I had a few enhancement ideas for Template:Jcon that I was wondering could be considered or added. I don't have the skillset to make some the edits myself.
Some fixes that should be looked into are:
1. Match shield size.
I noticed the default shield size was enlarged in Template:Jct so now there's a noticeable difference. Personally I prefer the shield size on Template:Jcon, but I'm thinking the sizing should be consistent between the two templates.
e.g. Template:Jct
Highway 417 /
TCH vs. Template:Jcon
Highway 417 /
TCH
2. Allow for more destinations.
With Template:Jcon it appears that |city=
and |town=
were treated separately, but now the commands are interchangeable. Allowing for up to four cities/towns would be helpful.
3. Fix direction placement on concurrencies
With concurrencies, Template:Jcon puts all the directions at the end while they should be placed after each entry
e.g. Template:Jct
Highway 6 north /
Highway 21 south /
Highway 26 east vs. Template:Jcon
Highway 6 /
Highway 21 /
Highway 26 north/south/east
Some enhancement ideas I had for the template are:
4. Incorporate the "To" function
The "To" function is not available on Template:Jcon despite Ontario having it's own Trailblazer shield set. Variations could be To1 (i.e. To Highway X) and To2 (i.e. Highway X to Highway Y).
e.g. Template:Jct To
Highway 401;
Highway 403 to
Highway 401;
Highway 403 to
Queen Elizabeth Way
In a perfect world, the option of 'To' with the Shield Option (resulting in this shield), but a library of shields is currently unavailable.
5. Allow for multi-jurisdictional concurrencies
While King's Highway/County Road concurrencies technically do not exist as its a break in the County Road, concurrencies between County Roads two counties do exist if they are located on a county (or similar entity) boundary. If Template:Jcon could be configured to allow this to be represented, it could be a possible improvement, especially since there is now a way to do it on Template:Jct.
e.g.
Regional Road 7 /
County Road 18 {{jct|province=ON|RR|7|CR|18|county1=Peel|county2=Dufferin}}
Incorporated with a "To" function, it could allow to for links to King's Highways (if necessary):
e.g.
Municipal Road 55 to
Highway 17 {{jct|province=ON|MR|55|Hwy|17|county1=Sudbury|to2=y}}
6. Allow for long text
Similar logic to the |ot=y
with removes the shield and link, a proposed |longtext=
(or a different name) would put the full name of the road (i.e. the County name). This could be useful if there were multi-jurisdictional concurrencies.
e.g. {{jcon|Peel|7|longtext=y}} =
Peel Regional Road 7;
|longtext=y
Peel Regional Road 7 /
Dufferin County Road 18
