Time is running out for you to vent your frustrations and bestow a dubious honour on their your favourite road.
The Canadian Automobile Association’s annual poll of the province’s worst municipal roads ends tomorrow.
The CAA says the focus of this year’s campaign is on the toll that crumbling roads and bridges have on people’s health, consumers’ wallets and the environment.
Campaign Chair Kris Barnier tells Bayshore Broadcasting News Mayors and provincial politicians are paying attention to the list.
He says Mayors across the province do not want to see their towns high up on the worst roads list.
The CAA has been pressing both local leaders and Queens Park to improve roadways across the province.
Barnier says 2nd Avenue East in Owen Sound from 12th Street to the Bayshore Community Centre received a lot of votes last year as the city’s worst road.
You can vote online at www.worstroads.ca — or at CAA stores or at several repair facilities in the area.
In 2007, the Greater Sudbury area garnered four of the top 10 spots on the list of axle-busting, pothole-covered streets and roadways.
Last year, more than 65 hundred Ontarians submitted votes online or at CAA-approved repair shops and stores across Ontario.
