Shitty Roads/Construction Thread

Just wanted to make this thread to ensure everyone knows where all the unfriendly roads are in Vancouver and to make sure everyone has a smooth passing as they commute through uneven/unpaved infested roads of crapcouver.

I will try to keep the first post updated with everyone's findings in these crappy roads.

Quote:
West 4th and Fir street to Maple street - Contruction

Prince Edward Street and 17th ave - Crap roads

University Blvrd between Blanca and Wesbrook - Pot holes

Knight bridge - Crap roads

49th between elliot and kerr - Crap roads

Bridgeview Dr onto 115th Ave - Crap roads

inverness and 26th - Crap roads

HOV lanes on highway 1 - Crap roads

33rd Ave between Oak and Cambie - Crap roads

Prince Edward Street and 17th ave.

Side street, but avoid at all costs. Road is absolutely terrible regardless if you're slammed or not

I hate University Blvrd between Blanca and Wesbrook (at UBC)... It seems like a new pot-hole opens up on that stretch every single day..

Westminster Hwy after Nelson, going towards Annacis Island.

Construction looks like it's kind of lightening up, but it's still a headache

Most of Marine Drive on the way to UBC is still absolute crap. Also, in the White Rock/South Surrey stretch of 152nd many new potholes have been opening up...

If you want real hydroplaning stay on the left lane of knight going to richmond. Old video of me shitting my pants as a huge puddle of water almost drags me towards the barrier. So much water that i couldn't hear crap for a few seconds and couldn't see crap either cause my whole windshield was covered in water.

Gilley Ave between Kingsway & Imperial - Waterwork (Roads all kinds of cut up)
Armstrong Ave between Caribou & Cumberland (as luder said) - Waterworks half assed finished (Roads all uneven)
10th Ave between Caribou & Cumberland - Waterworks, same shit roads all fucked up in spots
Douglas Road between Lougheed & Goring/Springer - sunken manholes

All Burnaby..

Lol 3 weeks ago there was a pothole closer to cambie side just where the road starts sloping down, must've been a solid 3" deep surprisingly they filled it pretty quickly.

That ride is ghetto as hell, didn't even bother putting curbs on it. Knight street bridge heading north but that's been mentioned. They're probably going to pave that this summer, expect lineups to the tunnel.

That area has been terrible for awhile now, I don't even remember what the on ramp is like. renfrew has a weird spots today, one spot is near 20th ave. There's a rediculously tiny house getting the sewer lines dug in. The house is smaller then the friggen backhoe. Then around renfrew and first there's construction on both sides of the street. getting into that t&t parking lot is gonna be a tricky(trickier then normal i suppose)

The alley behind my house is better than most streets in Vancouver..........

Kingsway westbound far right lane near Willingdon is pretty crappy.
