Ontario drivers can access HOV lanes during off-peak hours

Ontario’s transportation minister has announced that high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes will soon be accessible to solo drivers during off-peak hours as part of the government’s efforts to alleviate traffic congestion. Specific hours for this change have not yet been defined but will exclude the busiest morning and evening times. The province currently has 237 kilometers of HOV lanes, with plans to add 146 kilometers. The proposal aims to improve travel times and reduce the economic impact of gridlock, which costs the province billions annually.
