Expect it to be all a-Twitter over the coming weeks…  or a hashtag hayday to be more accurate.

Members of the public have been asked to use #MBWorstRoads in the annual CAA Manitoba Worst Roads campaign for 2018.

Motorists, pedestrians and cyclists across the province are all welcome to vote for the roadway they believe to be the worst.

CAA said the physical condition of the road is not the only criteria they want input on. People can nominate a thoroughfare for any of the following issues:

  • traffic congestion
  • potholes/crumbling pavement
  • timing of traffic lights
  • pedestrian/cycling safety
  • poor road signs or road markings

It is the seventh time CAA has run the campaign.
