CAA’s Worst Roads Campaign Returns to Push for Much-Needed Repairs

The CAA Worst Roads Campaign is back for a 22nd year, again providing the opportunity for Ontario drivers to call out roads badly in need of repair.

Since 2003, CAA has published the online survey results and, armed with those results, lobbied different levels of government to expedite their repair.

CAA government relations consultant Brian Pirvu says the public call-out of Ontario’s worst roads has seen infrastructure funding made available and repairs made.

Pirvu notes a CAA survey done earlier this year validated the importance of good roads in terms of money saved by drivers.

Pirvu notes CAA’s work isn’t done with the list’s publication.

As for Lansdowne Street and Water Street, Pirvu notes repair progress has been steady since both appeared on last year’s regional list.
