Enter your distance, vehicle class and travel time to see an honest planning range across Highway 407 ETR's 12 pricing zones.
Without one, light and medium vehicles add a $5.30 camera charge per trip and a $5 monthly account fee.
Planning range based on rates effective January 1, 2026. Your exact bill depends on entry and exit, direction, zone and exact entry time. This is not a quote. Confirm a specific route with the official 407 ETR rates and trip calculator.
The most-searched 407 question is cost per kilometre. Use this table for a quick estimate, then run your trip in the calculator above for a full total (distance + trip charge + optional video toll).
| Example trip | Light (transponder) | Tractor-trailer peak | Without transponder add-on |
|---|---|---|---|
| 25 km off-peak | $13.48–$13.67 | $40.45–$41.00 | +$5.30 light/medium; heavy transponder required |
| 50 km peak weekday | $32.15–$60.61 | $96.45–$181.82 | +$5.30 light/medium; heavy transponder required |
| 100 km mid-day | $57.48–$98.06 | $172.44–$294.18 | +$5.30 light/medium; heavy transponder required |
Formula: (km × the applicable zone/time rate) + the vehicle-class trip charge + any camera/account fees. Because a distance-only calculator does not know your 12-zone path, it returns the low-to-high planning range instead of false precision.

Highway 407 ETR uses 12 zones, direction and entry time. In 2026, light-vehicle rates range from roughly $0.50/km overnight to $1.19/km in the highest peak zones. Heavy single-unit rates run about $1.00–$2.38/km and heavy multiple-unit rates about $1.50–$3.58/km. Trip charges are $1, $2 and $3 respectively.
For light and medium vehicles, a transponder avoids the $5.30 camera charge and $5 monthly account fee. Heavy vehicles over 5,000 kg must have a valid transponder. The 2026 lease is $5 per month or $31.50 per year, plus tax.
The 407 is cheapest during off-peak periods: weekday evenings after 7 PM, overnight, early morning before 6 AM, and weekends. Off-peak per-km rates are roughly half the weekday peak rates. Mid-day weekday rates (10 AM – 2:30 PM) sit between off-peak and peak. Truckers and fleets running 407-heavy lanes during off-peak hours can save 50%+ on toll costs versus peak.
Yes. Highway 407 ETR uses three vehicle classes: light (passenger vehicles), heavy single unit (straight trucks, larger vans, RVs over 5,000 kg), and heavy multi-unit (tractor-trailers). Heavy single units pay roughly twice the light-vehicle rate per kilometre. Heavy multi-unit tractor-trailers pay roughly three to four times the light-vehicle rate. A 100 km peak-period tractor-trailer trip can run $185+ in distance charges alone.
Light and medium vehicles can use camera billing, which adds a $5.30 camera charge per trip and a $5 monthly account fee. Heavy vehicles over 5,000 kg must carry a valid transponder; driving without one can add a $60 camera charge and Highway Traffic Act exposure.
407 ETR sends monthly statements to the registered transponder account holder, or to the registered vehicle owner if the trip was camera-billed. Each statement lists every trip with entry and exit interchanges, distance, time of day, and charges. Payments are due monthly. Unpaid tolls can trigger Ontario Ministry of Transportation plate denial at registration renewal.
407 ETR multiplies the distance travelled in each zone by the rate for your vehicle class, direction and entry time, then adds the class-specific trip charge. In 2026, heavy multiple-unit rates range roughly from $1.50 to $3.58 per kilometre, plus a $3 trip charge.
