Winter weather arrives in Ontario, 407 ETR crews prepared to keep the GTA moving safely

The Company's world class winter readiness program keeps roads clear and drivers safe

TORONTO, Dec. 9, 2025 /CNW/ - As the GTA faces harsh winter conditions — marked by snow and freezing temperatures — 407 ETR's Highway Operations Team is working around the clock to keep the highway safe and clear for all drivers. Leveraging advanced winter maintenance strategies and real-time monitoring, crews ensure that snow and ice are managed quickly and effectively. In fact, Highway 407 ETR has a 60% lower collision rate compared to other 400-series highways, offering drivers a safer and more reliable route during all seasons.

From salt application to snow plowing, 407 ETR winter maintenance crews are prepared to tackle seasonal weather as early as mid-October. Highway patrollers monitor temperature and snow accumulation, and crews can respond quickly when active weather strikes, living on-site 24/7 at one of three locations along the 108-kilometre route. Equipped with wide wing snowplows that clear two lanes at once, crews can maintain the highway more efficiently, reducing the number of plows needed and minimizing environmental impact.

"Our Teams don't just react to the weather — they stay ahead of it," says Tony Angelo, Vice President, Operations & Infrastructure. "We're ready to tackle challenging road conditions with advanced equipment like wide wing snowplows that let us clear more lanes, faster. Every decision we make is about keeping our highway and customers safe, no matter what the season throws at us."

"At 407 ETR, our commitment to safety is always unwavering — especially when winter arrives," says Jose Espinosa, President & CEO, 407 ETR. "We invest properly in the people, technology and resources needed to keep our highway clear and safe for everyone. It's just one way we deliver peace of mind to our customers, so they can focus on what matters most — getting where they need to go, safely."

Fast facts:

• 407 ETR invested $15M in winter maintenance equipment in 2025 and the winter fleet is comprised of 80 snowplows.
• The Company covers 100% of the costs necessary to operate Highway 407 ETR, including maintenance, snow removal and policing.
