What is the worst road to travel on in Saskatchewan? It can be a city street, a highway or anything in-between. From April 8th to 29th, motorists can nominate and vote for their worst road in the province. Just what exactly is a worst road? Typically these are roads that have potholes, cracks, crumbling pavement and are in general disrepair, have poor signs or road markings, and have traffic congestion. Once again, motorists will be able to specify the section of the road they wish to nominate.
Photos of the nominated and voted worst road will be accepted and West Central Online reminds motorists to only take photos when safe to do so. The top 10 roads will be announced on May 2nd.
The Worst Roads campaign will be monitored with updates on which roads in our province are getting the top votes. The information will be made available via weekly news releases, social media including Facebook and Twitter, as well as on West Central Online.
The 2015 Worst Roads Campaign attracted 4,556 votes with Saskatchewan 354 near Dilke voted as the number one worst road in the province. In 2014, the Worst Roads Campaign garnered 4,651 votes and in 2013, 2,800 votes were tabulated while 2,900 votes were recorded in 2012.
The Worst Roads Campaign helps put a spotlight on troublesome and even dangerous road conditions in the province and is one tool to help address those roads in most need.
