 | | Ontario provincial highway 401, which is normally referred to simply as Highway 401, is a freeway that extends across Southern Ontario, Canada. |
 | | Today the stretch of Highway 401 that passes through the Greater Toronto Area ranges from 10 to 18 lanes, and the stretch between Mississauga and Brock Road in Pickering is thought to be the world's longest continuous stretch of highway having 12 or more lanes. |
 | | There are no direct interchanges with U.S. Interstate highways, but Interstates 75 and 375 in Detroit, Michigan, and Interstate 81 in New York State, are each a few miles away, via Ontario highways 3, the former 3B, and 137, leading respectively to the Ambassador Bridge, the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel, and the Thousand Islands Bridge. |
