And to @clarkekelly.bsky.social, the answer that they wouldn't give you is: the roads will be worse.
Rural wards in particular have massive financial backlogs in road resurfacing primarily due to the sheer amount of roads there.

Councillor Kelly still voted in favour of this farce of a plan though. So when the roads, community centers, arenas, parks, sidewalks, etc. continue to deteriorate, will people remember the good question or that despite that answer you still voted to let everything keep getting worse?

@arieltroster.com @shawnmenard.bsky.social What's being done during this work to deal with drivers cutting down Percy Street to avoid Bronson?
Project manager: "Percy would not be designated as a detour route for construction on Bronson as it isn’t the same road classification."
Yet, they will...
Oh and I've calculated out the cost to taxpayers needed in each ward to fix up all the roads in their own wards, and @clarkekelly.bsky.social's Ward 5 has the highest cost per household at $32,400
The finance and corporate services committee voted 9-2 to approve a plan to address a multi-million gap in funding for infrastructure.
