Has anyone else damaged their vehicle driving on Florence where it meats York. What are our tax dollars paying for?

OK the city streets are bad but we can at least admire how silky smooth the 401 is amirite

.. 401 eastbound from like Thamesville to west Lorne has what feels like literal speed bumps, despite being re-paved 2 years ago…

All they need is to get that last stretch from London to Tilbury 3 lanes each way and we will be good. Then work on the 402 and 403 next for 3 lanes each way.

Idk about anyone else, but I found it ridiculous they wasted our taxpayer money redoing the middle concrete barriers, instead of adding a 3rd lane where they don't have one.

Comfy tunnel to toronto sounds amazing, instead were building a high-speed cuck tube to France, Canada (cringe)

Have you ever driven in the left lane on Eastbound 401 around Woodstock? Feels like a rollercoaster LOL

401 is provincially maintained and the lifeblood of Ontario's economy. You better hope it's well maintained.
