Drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians alike can now nominate and vote for Ontario’s worst roads.
Voting for the Canadian Automobile Association’s Worst Road CampaignThe campaign offers residents the chance to put a spotlight on roads in their communities that are in notably poor condition. They can vote on infrastructure issues ranging from congestion, potholes, poor road signs, pedestrian access, cycling infrastructure and the timing of traffic lights, among others.
“We make sure the website’s input is accurate, we work with a partner to analyze the roads and get advice on what repairs are needed,” Di Felice said. “We communicate with the municipalities and talk to them about the roads, what projects are needed, and the issues behind the projects.” In 2022, Barton Street East in Hamilton was named Ontario’s worst road, prompting the city to announce a multi-phase reconstruction of the “beleaguered” route, the CAA said in a release.
Repairs are needed province-wide, the CAA said. In a recent survey conducted by the association, 85 per cent of respondents said they were concerned about the state of Ontario's roads and over half said that Ontario’s roads have gotten worse over time. Those surveyed identified the main improvements needed on their roadways as potholes and a lack of pedestrian access .
