The clock is ticking to nominate hazardous roads as part of an annual campaign aimed at highlighting infrastructure concerns across the province.
The CAA South Central Ontario says nominations for its Worst Roads campaign close Friday at 11:59 p.m., urging drivers, cyclists and pedestrians to speak up about unsafe or deteriorating road conditions.
So far, more than 3,200 roads across 222 municipalities — roughly half of Ontario communities — have been submitted. That total is about 800 more than last year, reflecting ongoing concerns about potholes, sunken sewer grates, congestion, and inadequate cycling and pedestrian infrastructure.
CAA says the campaign gives residents a direct way to flag problem areas and push for infrastructure improvements.
“Nominating your ‘worst road’ is a powerful way to advocate for improvements and draw attention to pressing infrastructure challenges that impact communities across Ontario,” the organization said.
CAA South Central Ontario will compile submissions and release its full list of results in early June.
