CAA-Quebec has unveiled its 2025 ranking of the worst roads in Quebec, with Boulevard de la Concorde Est taking the top (unfortunate) spot in Laval.
It outranked Boulevard des Mille-Îles, last year’s “winner,” and Boulevard Marc-Aurèle-Fortin to complete the top three worst roads on Île Jésus.
In 2024, the undesirable Laval podium included Boulevards des Laurentides and Lévesque Ouest.
Provincial Top 10
No roads in Laval made it onto the list of the 10 worst roads in Quebec.
This year, the infamous top spot goes to Chemin du Contour-du-Lac-à-Beauce, located in La Tuque. According to CAA-Quebec, users of this Mauricie road rallied to draw attention to the severely deteriorated condition of the pavement.
Chemin Klock, in Gatineau, and Chemin Notch, in Chelsea, rank second and third, respectively. These are two of five road infrastructures from the Outaouais region to make it into Quebec’s top 10 worst roads for 2025.
Here is the full top 10 list:
-
Chemin du Contour-du-Lac-à-Beauce (La Tuque)
-
Chemin Klock (Gatineau)
-
Chemin Notch (Chelsea)
-
Chemin Cook (Gatineau)
-
Chemin Pink (Gatineau)
-
Rang Petit-Capsa (Pont-Rouge)
-
Chemin du Lac-Saint-François (Saint-Hubert-de-Rivière-du-Loup)
-
Chemin Hamilton (Inverness)
-
Rue des Laurentides (Gatineau)
-
Route Principale (Wentworth-Nord)
A Desired Moratorium?
Furthermore, a recent CAA-Quebec survey conducted among its members revealed that 79% of respondents support a temporary suspension of all new road development projects until the current infrastructure is properly maintained.
For the organization, this demonstrates that the current state of the road network is a significant concern for road users.
“Everyone wants a better-quality road network, but resources are limited. Our campaign is an annual reminder that choices must be made—often between maintaining the current network and developing new roads,” said Nicolas Ryan, Director of Public Affairs and Media Relations at CAA-Quebec, in a press release.
