By car: Fort Erie is most easily explored by car. Garrison Road (Provincial Route 3) runs east-west through town. The Queen Elizabeth Way (QEW) connects to Niagara Falls, Hamilton, and Toronto. The Niagara Parkway follows the river northward and is a scenic leisure drive.
From the USA: The Peace Bridge connects Fort Erie directly to Buffalo, New York. US speeds are in mph; Canada uses km/h throughout.
Local transit: Fort Erie Transit runs limited service on weekdays, connecting the town centre to Crystal Beach. Service is infrequent — about every 90 minutes — so a car is practical for getting around.
To Toronto: The QEW provides direct highway access. Toronto is approximately 130 kilometres north, about 90 minutes without traffic.
