Traffic congestion, poorly timed traffic lights (there's one every block) and there are train tracks that cross this major road and trains cross approx 3-5 times per day taking 7 or 8 minueds each time because they change tracks. Thus causing traffic back ups for miles and miles.

A winding, hilly narrow road full of deep potholes and cracks. There are no shoulders (woods on 1 side & ravine on the other), and visibility is very limited, so you must drive in your lane no matter how bad it is.

Aug 19, 2009
Franklin Boulevard

between
Avenue Road
and
Saginaw Pkwy

This section of the road should be better maintained. The intersection at Saginaw Pkwy and Franklin Blvd is very busy. Apart from the road being busy, because of the high traffic there are potholes on the road. St.Benedict High School is on this intersection, as well as 2 malls at opposite corners. Many times I have voiced my opinion about the city building a pedestrian bridge to alleviate people have to cross Sagniaw Pkwy at the intersection. It's bad enough that we as drivers have to dodge the potholes but we also run a huge risk of hitting pedestrians. I understand that maintaining our roads is expensive, but our lives and protecting it should be top priority. Our cars are not cheap. We should not have to go and change a tire more than necessary because of unrepaired roads. These unrepaired roads are unsafe, both for our cars and pedestrians. I have also caught myself trying to dodge a pothole, only to realize I could have hit a car or a pedestrian had they been in my path. Having lived in this area, I believe that the stretch of road from Avenue Rd to Saginaw Pkwy shoudl be repaired more frequently.

Hespeler Road (HWY 24), Cambridge, ON.

This road has a lot of potholes, surface is uneven. Drainage covers are on the middle of the road and deeper than road surface making it difficult to drive. If you try to avoid it, you are risking an accident.

Hespeler Road

between
Eagle Street
and
Dunbar Road

The road is poorly designed with traffic lights with what seems like every 100m. It is overused with no alternative. It is poor planning. There are so many signs that it is an ugly mess. It is the main entrance to Cambridge from the 401 and it is an embarrassment to the city.

Aug 13, 2009
Franklin Boulevard

between
Dundas
and
401

For a major arterial road thru the industrial sector of the city this road is a disaster. There are pot holes, ruts, traffic lights that do nothing to slow traffic. This road is a race track. Adding roundabouts with high crowns create blind sight lines and will only escalate the problem.

nothing but potholes and patches- When I am towing my trailer down this road- my trailer wheels leave the road about as much as they are in contact with the road due to all the bumps,dips,holes etc.- it has been like this for years-

Constant congestion, stop and start the whole way because lights are not timed very well, but the road is supposedly at 60km/h zone. As if you could get to that speed for more than 30 seconds. It's also got 3 lanes in each direction, so getting to the proper side to enter a plaza can be harrowing!
