Improving Ontario Road Conditions
The annual CAA Canadian Automobile Association campaign, in conjunction with the Ontario Road Builders'
Association, creates "awareness about the lack of road maintenance and is used as a notice to municipalities to shape up and improve
their road conditions. Improving Ontario road conditions make for safer driving for all Ontario visitors and residents. Pub. Note: We applaud the
CAA and Ontario Road Builders for conducting this survey. Road conditions north of Toronto faired well compared to the City of Toronto. Book Ontario
