The 519 Podcast presents: Keeping our highways moving

It's something that just about everyone in our region has experience with. Driving in slippery, snowy, or whiteout conditions. It’s one of the most stressful things about living in this country.

But what happens when you slide off that highway into the ditch? Or if a truck does?

Highway 401 is one of the busiest highways in North America. Our 400 series highways host over 400,000 drivers per day.

Keeping them moving - especially when the weather gets bad - isn’t easy.

On this episode of the 519 Podcast, we talk to Gary Vandenheuvel, owner and operator of Preferred Towing in Sarnia. Gary and his team are featured on the Discovery Channel show 'Heavy Rescue 401' and they keep us moving even when Mother Nature stands in the way.
