Lack of cash for preventative maintenance will see roads deteriorate from overall “fair” to “poor” condition, with more potholes and ruts forming.
Steve Lazarevski was test driving a customer’s freshly repaired car when it hit one of Toronto’s“Next thing you know there’s a whole bunch of clunking in the front end,” said the owner of Tess Auto on St. Clair Avenue West. “I go around the block and I come back with a broken car.”
“At current funding levels, only around one-third of the rehabilitation needs for major and local roads can be addressed,” according to. The city is spending billions of dollars to maintain roads and bridges over the next decade but needs another $2.7 billion for an ideal “state of good repair” program.
“Even though the city does the day-to-day filling of potholes … there’ll be more patches on the roads, because there’ll be more potholes that form that we will need to fill. There will be more frequent cracks on the roads.” “I know if I’m not paying really close attention, I could get knocked off my bike. I sometimes fear for my safety. It feels like a symptom of an underfunded city.”
The quality will soon nosedive, thanks to a long-term trend made worse by pandemic costs that have forced the city to reduce and delay roadwork rather than reduce front-line services, such as libraries and recreation centres.
