Last year CAA released the Worst Roads in Ontario and Kingston made it on that list twice. Two roads in Kingston (Princess & Brock) are some of the worst in Ontario. In all of 1,076,965km, a total of area of 450km made it on the list twice.
We are the First Capital of Canada, we have the lovely UNESCO World Heritage Site - Fort Henry, we have beautiful waterfront on Lake Ontario, many hot (and smart) Queens, RMC and St. Lawrence students, great patio’s, one fantastic essential radio station…the list goes on, but to be listed twice as having the worst roads, not something I’d like to keep on that list of things that Kingston is known for. That being said, we do have some terrible roads. Yes Brock and Princess – although Brock is getting resurfaced in October (ya!), but there are many others.
Have you been down Taylor Kidd in the rain? Don’t go over 20 you may hydroplane. Pay attention if you’re on Norwest Road, you may disappear in a pot hole. Princess at Sir John A. feels like you’re on an old logging road. How is Bath Road, I haven’t bee on it in a while.
Got a suggestion of a particularly bad road?
Or if you are a bright, positive, optimistic person, forget the roads, what would you like Kingston be to known for?
