Drive times and internet coverage

How far each Dufferin municipality is from the places businesses need, and how much of it has 50/10 Mbps internet, compared with 11 neighbours.

Drive times are typical free-flow estimates, not measured trips. Fastest route by car from each municipality's OpenStreetMap place point (Nominatim) using the OSRM routing engine (router.project-osrm.org demo server, OpenStreetMap road data, car profile). Times are typical free-flow estimates: no traffic, weather or construction. Rush-hour trips toward the GTA are often much longer. For the rural townships the point is the township's map point, not a particular hamlet. Hwy 401 = the nearest numbered Hwy 401 interchange (OSM motorway_junction) between Cambridge and Toronto, chosen by shortest time. Computed 2026-10-21.

ISED publishes 50/10 Mbps availability per ~24 km² hexagon only as a range of household shares. We count, per municipality, the populated hexagons (5+ households) whose centre falls inside the OpenStreetMap boundary, and report the share where more than 75% of households can get 50/10 Mbps. 'Floor share' weights hexagons by the lower bound of ISED's household-count range. These are coverage indications, not exact household percentages. Small towns (Orangeville, Shelburne) fall in a single hexagon. Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada.
