MTO website is now up, but Interactive map showing road closures & driving conditions is down, which usually means there’s bad weather somewhere, unfortunately we don’t know where. Maybe MTO should get a $10 a month GoDaddy hosting account or similar, so they can then keep their site up and running when people need it?

The interactive map is currently unavailable, we apologize for any inconvenience. Please select a link below for text reports. Information is available through our hands free 511 automated service! Simply dial 511

All school buses in the area cancelled.

MTO info site down again ( as it usually seems to be during bad weather)
