TOW ZONE PILOT ON SECTIONS OF GREATER TORONTO AREA HIGHWAYS
The Ministry of Transportation has launched a restricted towing zones pilot on sections of provincial highways in the Greater Toronto Area. If you need assistance in a restricted towing zone:- Call 911 if it is an emergency or if you are in a travelled lane and cannot safely move your vehicle to a safe location
- Call 511 if you are in a safe location and you need a tow (select the option for the Tow Zone Pilot)
- Only call 511 if you are in a restricted towing zone on a provincial highway (see map below).
ONTARIO 511 APP
The Ontario 511 app is available to all drivers and includes additional features:• Track my snow plow which will allow drivers to track the location of snow plows and salt trucks on provincial highways in Ontario
