Heavy Rescue: 401

"Anything Can Happen"

Synopsis:

Spanning the Greater Toronto Area and southern Ontario, Heavy Rescue: 401 follows multiple major tow operators, rescue, and maintenance crews day and night along North America’s most intense stretch of highway. These routes are lifelines for the nation’s industrial heartland and for thousands of commuters. When disaster strikes on these roads, the pressure is on to get them cleared and reopened. Jobs and lives depend on these highways, and it’s up to Heavy Rescue to keep them open. When a semi smashes into a building, James and Bubba must recover it without bringing down the whole structure. Problems plague Kevin when a truck crashes in deep mud. Sonny fights traffic, and frustration, trying to answer an urgent call.
