During the second quarter of 2025, 407 ETR released its 2024 Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Report, Future Forward, outlining the Company's progress in key areas of sustainability and responsible business practices. Marking the sixth year of reporting, the publication provides a detailed look at 407 ETR's ESG strategy and performance metrics.
407 ETR continues to sponsor local conservation and biodiversity initiatives and is donating a total of $1.8 million over three years from 2023 to 2025. This includes its ongoing support of the Rights-of-Way as Habitat Program with Canadian Wildlife Federation (CWF) to support the recovery of monarchs, bees, hummingbirds and other pollinator species. 407 ETR celebrated Pollinator Week in June 2025 by highlighting 15 roadside restoration projects underway as part of this multi-year sponsorship. Together, CWF and 407 ETR have surpassed the original 12-hectare goal of roadside restoration and are on track to restore 15.8 hectares of habitat — the equivalent of approximately 30 football fields. In addition to supporting the planting of native wildflowers and grasses, 407 ETR's funding is helping CWF educate rights-of-way managers about best practices in roadside vegetation management.
"As stewards of a vital transportation corridor in the GTA, we understand the critical role we play in preserving and enhancing the natural environment," says Geoffrey Liang, Chief Financial Officer, 407 ETR. "We're deeply committed to minimizing our environmental impacts and enhancing the ecosystems that surround us, which is reflected in our ongoing investments in biodiversity."
