  • 51 Sunnyside Ave Toronto, ON M6R 2P1, Canada - Toronto
    deep crack straight pothole running across entire northbound Lane, unavoidable.
  • 315 Royal York Rd Etobicoke, ON M8Y 2P8, Canada - Toronto

    it's in the bike lane next to the GO Station in the northbound Lane.

    looks like a utility cut gone bad.

    needs fixing before it collapses.

    camera took the pic just after we drove over it, but it's pretty massive, next to the canpar facility
  • 54 Newcastle St Etobicoke, ON M8Y 1A3, Canada - Toronto
    very large pothole, very easy to hit due to narrow Street full of parked cars by the GO station

  • 284-286 The Queensway Etobicoke, ON M8Y, Canada - Toronto

    Northeast corner of intersection, on Queensway westbound, center lane, on the pedestrian walk path, there is a huge hole forming that looks like a sinkhole.

    I noticed it when in the right turning lane to go north on Parklawn today. It look like a real damage causing hole that is only bound to get bigger. Please deal with it soon.

    Not sure where to report this, maybe someone will be kind enough to leave me info on who to contact.. the city, or the ttc.

    This has happened on quite a few occasions for me this year with the increase in traffic on Parklawn.

    Going north on Parklawn, just north of the Queensway (2 or 3 houses north) there is a bus stop. There is no driveway or boulevard for the buss to pull into, thus, when he stops to pick up or drop off passengers, everyone else behind him is stuck.

    This has recently led to traffic backing up into the intersection during light changes. I saw it happen a few days ago, a long line of cars following a bus as it went through the intersection and at the same moment he got to the bus stop, the light turned yellow. Parklawn came to a standstill as east/westbound traffic waited for the bus to leave so all the trapped cars in the intersection could move.

    And again this morning, i was in the left turning lane eastbound on queensway turning north onto parklawn. i was about the 6th car in the que. Turns out a northbound bus just made the yellow light, so all of us in the left turn que got stuck in the intersection waiting for the bus to finish it's pickup/dropoff. It ate up the entire length of the left turn green arrow before the bus got underway. I was the last person to finish the left turn.

    This bus stop needs to either:
    1. Be removed.
    2. Be moved further north.
    3. Have a boulevard cut out for the bus to be able to pull into and out of to allow traffic to continue around the bus as it's doing it's thing.

  • 12 Windermere Avenue Toronto, Ontario - Toronto
    travelling westbound on Queensway, in the left lane, immediately after going into the intersection at windermere, i hit a pothole or depression or something that made me fear i had dented my wheel rim. This occurred right near the corner where the pedestrians begin crossing northbound from them middle median separating the queensways east and west roads.
  • 105-111 The Queensway Toronto, Ontario - Toronto
    There is a section of road between the S.Kingway underpass and Windermere (on QUeensway just before the left hand turn lane appears for Windermere) where there is a depression forming under a utility cut and the road is slowly sinking. This is in the left lane. Immediately next to it in the right lane is a manhole cover. The area around it is starting to deteriorate and acting like a big pothole itself. It makes for jarring experience if you hit either of these the wrong way.
  • Lake Shore Boulevard West Toronto, Ontario - Toronto

    Gardiner Exp. onramp at Jameson.

    Question.

    Why is this ramp closed after 5pm now? Honestly, can someone explain this? Many years ago, it was always closed around 5pm, but then i noticed one day that it was open and when i drove down it - the annoyingly short merging lane was gone and the new freshly painted long merging lane was now present. Traffic was moving nice and smooth. I thought "GREAT".. they fixed the bottleneck and now people can use this onramp to jump on the Gardiner!

    Fast forward to last week, and noticing the ramp shut down, and still to this day shut down. Can anyone tell me? Are they finally going to create a merging for dummies diagram to get people to merge at the end near the ramp rather than very early on which causes the bottleneck to begin with?

    BAH.

  • 16 Strachan Avenue Toronto, Ontario - Toronto

    on Strachan Ave, southbound lane, south side of intersection. A gaping pothole is opening up right at the foot of the hill.

    While i'm on the matter, that whole area is rather uneven and feels like it's missing areas of paved road, almost like a section of the road has started to sink. Driving over it feels like you're testing out the suspension and ride handling of your car on a torture test course.

  • 144 Berry Road Toronto, Ontario - Toronto

    It's right on the west side Stephen Dr. pedestrian walkway.

    Westbound Berry Rd lane.

  • Large Pothole Archived
    144 Berry Road Toronto, Ontario - Toronto

    I hit it at night so i'm not sure what it looks like, all i know is i felt it and cursed very loudly.

    Westbound shortly after the intersection.

  • 278 Prince Edward Drive South Toronto, Ontario - Toronto
    A couple of potholes and broken sections by the curb noted between Glenaden Ave W. and the entrance to the cemetery.
  • 77 Riverwood Parkway Toronto, Ontario - Toronto

    There are numerous fractures, cracks and fissures along the entire street of Riverwood Pkwy, but the vast majority of the big ticket potholes exist between Sunnylea Ave. E and Kings Point Dr.

    The worst are is probably around Ivy Lea Cres. which has turned into a semi obstacle course of getting around all the potholes.

  • 150 The Queensway Toronto, Ontario - Toronto

    Traffic is backing up in the intersection Stephen Dr / The Queensway because the traffic lights directly east at the Mall entrance/Humber treatment plant entrance is not timed properly.

    It was good for a long period of time because the lights by the mall entrance would turn green for all Queensway traffic about 5-10 seconds ahead of the lights turning green for southbound Stephen drive traffic, letting all the cars trapped between Stephen and the Mall entrance a chance to empty so that Southbound Stephen drive traffic could have space to occupy.

    As it stands now, the light system is back to broken, with a red light at the mall entrance and cars backing up all the way to the Stephen/Queensway intersection, meaning the southbound Stephen traffic has nowhere to go, so they get @#$% and flood the intersection and create a tight bottleneck, preventing Westbound queensway traffic from proceeding on a green light until all eastbound traffic starts moving.

    This intersection is back into my top rated annoyance section. Someone in urban planning and design PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE figure out a method around this madness and propose it to the city. This **** has got to stop before someone road rages to the next level.

    Thanks.

  • 234-236 Park Lawn Road Toronto, Ontario - Toronto

    All potholes noticed only in southbound lane of Parklawn.

    They begin on a stretch of road just shortly after St. Marks church affecting an area between Cannon Rd. and Ringley Ave.

    The biggest one(s) i noticed are near the dual convenience stores on Waniska Ave. I think there are 4 in total, tho i might be wrong.

  • 8 Newholm Rd Ontario - Toronto
    Pretty big pothole, but not deep... Yet
  • 425 Burnhamthorpe Road Toronto, Ontario - Toronto
    Westbound on Burnamthorpe right at the lights. Turning left onto Burnamthorpe from the highway offramp exposes you to hitting these potholes as they are on the inside edge of the left turn.
