Potholes and crumbling pavement have led to Plank Rd. in Sarnia being voted as one of the worst roads in southwestern Ontario.
The Canadian Automobile Association released the results of its Worst Roads Campaign on Monday, and Plank Rd. is third on the regional list after topping it in 2017.
CAA spokesman Raymond Chan is pleased to hear the city will likely be fixing the road in 2019.
"It's great that the municipality has identified some sort of funding and an action plan to have that at least patched up or repaved by 2019," says Chan. "What we'd like to see, ultimately, is to have things done a bit quicker and sooner but we understand that they've identified the need to have it repaired which is good news."
Hwy. 401 in Chatham-Kent was voted the region's worst road due to ongoing safety concerns in that area.
The second-worst was Seminole St. in Windsor.
