Highway Towing Ottawa

Highway towing in Ottawa covers the most dangerous towing situations we handle. Vehicles pass a breakdown on the 417 at 100 to 120 km/h. The shoulder is narrow. Visibility drops to near zero during winter storms. A driver standing behind their broken-down car is exposed to traffic moving at lethal speeds. Ontario Towing responds fast to highway calls because every minute you sit on a highway shoulder increases the risk.

Ottawa's highway system

Highway 417, the Queensway, is the busiest road in Ottawa. It carries over 180,000 vehicles per day through the heart of the city. Highway 416 runs south from the 417 to Highway 401 and handles heavy truck traffic heading to and from the GTA. Highway 174 runs east from the 417 split through Orleans and into Prescott-Russell. Highway 7 runs west from Ottawa through Carleton Place toward Perth. We tow on all of them, all day, every day.
