We’ve all driven across some roads that have made us clench our teeth, brace for impact, or curse out loud from the big thud of a tire slamming in and out of a pothole.
There are some roads in Saskatchewan that are particularly bad, and every year CAA-Saskatchewan likes to find out which one is believed to be the worst.
All through the month of April, people were invited to vote on what is the “Worst Roads In Saskatchewan” through the CAA’s website. The results are now in.
Number one on the list, Mayfair Crescent in Regina. Like most neighbourhood roads, it has more cracks than a comedian, and more ups and downs than a roller coaster.
Nearby is Grant Drive, also in the top ten of the worst roads.
Grant Drive is getting some work done on it, but most of the road is in rough shape. CAA even featured it, one its You Tube Channel while voting was going on.
Ingersoll Crescent rounds out the three roads in Regina that made this dubious list of distinction.
Here is the entire list:
- Mayfair Crescent, Regina, SK
- Saskatchewan 47, Springside, SK (#2 in 2018 CAA Top Ten Worst Roads)
- Highway 9, Hudson Bay, SK (#3 in 2021 and #5 in 2018 CAA Top Ten Worst Roads)
- Saskatchewan 155, La Loche, SK (#1 in 2017 CAA Top Ten Worst Roads)
- Saskatchewan 5, Buchanan, SK
- Circle Drive, Saskatoon, SK
- 4th Avenue Viaduct S.W., Moose Jaw, SK
- Grant Drive, Regina, SK (#6 in 2021 and #8 in 2019 CAA Top Ten Worst Roads)
- Ingersoll Crescent, Regina, SK
- 9th Avenue S.W., Moose Jaw, SK (#10 in 2018 CAA Top Ten Worst Roads
The idea behind this is to shed some light on roads that may not be on the radar of the provincial or local governments.
