A portion of Highway 407 is becoming free starting Sunday, June 1, but drivers will need to know where to get off if they want to avoid getting dinged for entering the tolled portion.
This stretch is between Brock Road in Pickering and Highway 35/115 in Clarington.
The majority of Highway 407 ETR, from Burlington to Brock Road in Pickering, which is privately operated, remains tolled.

Driving on Highway 407 for free in Ontario? You can avoid tolls permanently on this stretch starting this weekend

Ontario is removing tolls from the provincially owned portion of the highway. Here's where and when.

Remember when #Ontario paid for Highway 407 and the Mike Harris #Conservative government sold it off?

Remember when the Doug Ford #Conservative govt refused to collect $1Billion in penalties from the Highway 407 owners?

"This is what #Conservatives do: they give public infrastructure that we own to their wealthy friends for a song. Their wealthy friends get wealthier and wealthier, and the public pays the price"

Doug Ford “the street-fighter” caves in to 407 corporate owners

Looking for someone to fight nurses? Look no further — Doug Ford is your man, but he turns to jelly when negotiating with the corporate world
