Day in the Life

As a Highway Maintenance Operator, you will begin to know the highway like the back of your hand as you perform repairs and maintain the highway infrastructure, repairing potholes and guardrails, installing small signs, repair end treatments, removing debris while meeting the MDMC requirements. You may also assist the Emergency Response Team and MTO patrollers, responding to incidents and working with the OPP, Toronto Fire, and EMS, ensuring the safety of the travelling public. When you are not maintaining the highway, you will be conducting daily circle checks, maintaining the equipment and providing minor repairs, completing accurate documentation of incident reports, time sheets, fuel records, and hours of service. Safety will be your number one priority, especially when operating heavy equipment, including winter combination units, spreaders, crash trucks, and loaders. You will be an essential member of the maintenance team and first point of contact in some situations. If you have a safety focused mindset and love to be on the road, this is the ideal role for you.
