Traffic Tickets in Sudbury, Ontario

Ontario’s Provincial Offences Act lets municipalities run their own provincial offences courts to handle matters like traffic tickets, bylaw infractions, and other non-criminal charges. The underlying Highway Traffic Act rules that define speeding, careless driving, and similar offences are identical across the province — but the local court location, mailing address, and payment process are set by each municipality, so what applies in Greater Sudbury won’t necessarily apply in a neighbouring city.

Sudbury's Provincial Offences Office

The City of Greater Sudbury lists its Provincial Offences Office on the main floor of the Provincial Tower at 199 Larch Street, open Monday to Friday between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Mailed payments go to 199 Larch St, Suite 102, Sudbury, ON P3E 5P9.

A temporary relocation for in-person court

A genuinely Sudbury-specific detail: the city's website states that all in-person court proceedings have been moved to the Lionel E. Lalonde Centre at 239 Montée Principale in Azilda, expected to last roughly two years while construction proceeds on a Cultural Hub at Tom Davies Square. If you have an in-person court date in Sudbury, it's worth double-checking whether it's being held at the usual downtown office or at the Azilda location before you go.

Paying a ticket

Fines can be paid in person, online at paytickets.ca, or by mail to the Larch Street address above. To check the status of a matter or an upcoming court date after choosing an option on the back of a ticket, the city points residents to the Government of Ontario's ticket-status tool at ontario.ca rather than a Sudbury-specific lookup.
