What is the worst road in B.C. in your opinion? BCAA wants to hear from you. They are asking drivers across B.C. to submit what they think is the worst road in the province, or the worst commute, by April 23rd. Whether you are a motorist, cyclist, or pedestrian, roads that are badly in need of repair, or are poorly designed, could be in the running to win. After voting closes April 23, BCAA said they will share the findings with municipalities and the Provincial Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure to find out what they are planning to do about the problems. On the BCAA website, you can check where your road ranks, and which ones are in the running to win the title of 'B.C.'s Worst Road'. Once final results are tallied, a list of the Top 20 "Worst Roads" in B.C. will be published. The BCAA "Worst Roads" survey defines a 'worst road' as any piece of paved infrastructure—including a bridge or tunnel—that exhibits the following characteristics:
- has damaging potholes
- needs resurfacing
- is unsafe and contributes to frequent accidents
- is often heavily congested
- has inadequate road markings or signs
- is poorly designed for motorists, pedestrians and cyclists to share safely
