The Canadian Automobile Association wants to know which roads are the worst in Ottawa, and across the province.
Over the next four weeks, you can vote for the road you think is most in need of repair or redesign on the CAA’s website.
CAA will compile the long list of roads from across the province and present the top ten to local and provincial governments in effort to get the roads fixed.
In Ottawa, Carling Avenue was ranked number five on the 2015 list, number seven on the 2014 list, and nine in 2013.
There were no Ottawa roads on the provincial list in 2016.
