Summary

Ontario's transportation network connects us to the global marketplace, and to one another. It ensures that goods can get to market, commuters can travel between home and work, and that businesses will invest and operate in the province to their full potential.

The Ministry of Transportation strives to be a world leader in moving people and goods safely and efficiently to support a globally competitive economy and a high quality of life.

The Ministry's policies, programs, and strategic investments - including maintenance, renewal and expansion - promote mobility, connectivity, and productivity, while supporting the province's strategic objectives. Major programs include planning for and investing in critical transportation infrastructure such as transit, highways, bridges, strategic corridors, and advancing driver and vehicle safety.

The Ministry works in partnership with other ministries, Indigenous communities, municipalities, neighbouring jurisdictions, the federal government and other stakeholders.
