CAA releases list of worst roads in northern Ont.

CTV News05-06-2025
Burton Avenue in Sudbury was named by the CAA the fifth worst in northern Ontario.
While the north didn't make the all-Ontario list, the Canadian Automobile Association says there are still some pretty horrible roads in northern Ontario.
The CAA released its list of the province's worst roads Thursday, with Hamilton and Toronto dominating the list.
In northeastern Ontario, Panache Lake Road in Greater Sudbury earned the dubious nod as the worst road, followed by McNabb Street in Sault Ste. Marie and Premier Road in North Bay.
Two more streets in Sudbury – Allan Street and Burton Avenue – rounded out the Top 5.
The full list with regional breakdowns across the province can be found here.
The last time a northern Ontario road was picked as the worst was in 2015, when Algonquin Boulevard West took home the 'honour.'
Before that it was Pelican Road in Sioux Lookout (2010), Vermillion Lake Road in Sudbury (2007) and Cardwell Road in the Township of Assiginack.
