Community Action
Ontario's Worst Roads
Each year, CAA and the Ontario Road Builder's Association compile a list of the 20 Worst Roads in Ontario - as voted by CAA Members and the general public. This program has been tremendously successful because municipal governments have taken action or are committing to improve the overwhelming majority of the roads named since 2003.
