Twice a week I have to take the Met east. The road surface is terrible between saint Laurent and Viau. There are potholes and broken asphalt on every lane for long stretches. Even the places that are repaired are replaced with cement that act a speed bumps. It’s very dangerous. I don’t know how long my car will hold up. Seriously. How bad does it need to get?
What does it take to repave metropolitan east

Someone needs to die first, that’s how it works here.
dangerous? it's been like so for a lot of time and it's not because your princess ass can't take it that it's dangerous. there's a suspension on your car: it take care of it.
car holding up? There's cars that take this route every single day and some multiple time a day and their car doesn't desintegrate in week time!! Sure their balljoints and shocks don't last 10+years but still they don't bust in a couple week either!
take the surounding street : you'll see it's way worst!

I feel you. The way it's decided which roads get redone makes no sense. HWY 20 east bound between lachine and lasalle has been repaved 3 times since I live in lachine in the last 6 years. Only needed to be done the first time. Both other times the condition was still good.
Same goes for small roads. My street hasn't been done since I've lived here. Next street over has been done 3 times as well.

Pourtant ce serait pas complique: Tu fermes LA NUIT une voie a la fois pour la reasphalter jusqu'a ce que toute la longueur soit faite.
Ils font ca couramment en Ontario, entre autres la 417 vers Ottawa qui est reasphaltee regulierement.
Mais ici on donne les contrats d'asphalte a des compagnies a numeros corrompues qui disparaissent avec le cash, donc on a ce qu'on a.

So it needs to be resurfaced 3 months later. Our climate is really bad here, so the roads cant take that change.

For the record: I've been airborne more than once in the Sidekick on the Metropolitan AND on the old Turcot when I used to work downtown.

I wasn't aware that Ontario had a tropical climate.

Actually if you go to Hawkesbury or Cornwall you'll see their roads aren't any better. But their highways are.

Pas juste le Met..
la crisse de 20 ressemble à un rang de Ste-Julie à St-Hyacinthe... et c'est pareil en inverse....
QUEBEKISTAN HERE WE GO:butthead:
La 30 vers Sorel ressemblait à une rue du Plateau avec toutes les bosses. Ils la refont en ce moment, ben hâte de voir le résultat final.

A voir des 18h aux Nouvelles TVA: Un forcené a Mourréal défonce le boulevard Metropolitain a l'aide d'une CAT Challenger.
Ya it is dangerous. Everyone is swirving at high speed to avoid the craters and since the asphalt on both sides of the lane are destroyed, people are taking up a lane and a half.
Don’t know what ur talking about not busting in a couple of weeks. All it takes is hitting a pothole at the right angle and shit gets fucked in a split second.
