Hwy 49 alternate version A video previously shown by Prince Edward County to the Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO), a key gathering of municipal leaders and provincial officials, depicting the condition of County Road 49.
A local road way has been given a designation it does not want.
Quinte News learned that 49, connecting Deseronto to Picton, is CAA’s Worst Road for South Central Ontario.
MPP Todd Smith says he hopes the announcement will spur on some financial support from the province and the federal government.
County Mayor Robert Quaiff has been lobbying the provincial government for funding support to fix up the highway ever since taking office, and a picture of him sitting with chunks of concrete pulled from the road has been widely circulated.
Voting took place last month and for much of the voting, 49 led the charge.
