On-demand roadside app and York Region property towing
Smart Roads is a Markham-based company operating an on-demand roadside assistance app for the Greater Toronto Area, alongside a separate private property towing enforcement service across York Region. Through the app, drivers who need help with towing, a flat tire change, a car unlock, gas delivery or a battery boost can see nearby independent service providers in real time and request assistance, similar to a ride-hailing app but for roadside help. Providers set their own hours, services and rates, and appear on the map once registered, with riders able to request help from any provider within 50 kilometres. Separately, Smart Roads Inc. provides private property towing for illegally parked vehicles across York Region, including Richmond Hill, Markham, Vaughan and Newmarket. This service is offered at no cost to property owners or managers, with all fees charged to the vehicle owner instead. Every tow is reported to police along with an incident number, and vehicle owners who contact police about a missing car are directed back to Smart Roads for recovery. Property managers can submit a tow authorization form for each incident or set up a standing enforcement agreement covering specific overnight hours. The company was founded by a team of mobile and web developers who say they built the app after researching what both roadside customers and service providers wanted from the industry. For property managers dealing with chronic parking violations in York Region, or for drivers looking for the nearest available roadside help through the app, Smart Roads offers two distinct but related services under one company.
