Advertisement 2 Article content Resident raises concern to North Bay council about "deteriorating" road Back to video Earl Davidson, who lives on Shorewood and spoke on behalf of residents on the road, showed council pictures of sink holes 12 to 18-inches deep, deterioration of road surfacing and major drainage and runoff issues. “Petitions represent many things — complaints or to raise awareness. I'm not here to raise a compliant, (but) rather raise awareness about the condition of the road which we live on,” he said during Tuesday's council meeting. He said their ask is “fairly” simple — to replace the tar and gravel treatment with asphalt. “The primary concern is access to residents, EMS (Emergency Medical Services) and school buses.” Shorewood has 22 permanent residents and five cottages. Davidson said he doesn't want to compare other roads, however Regal Road has been paved from one end to the other. “Pennisula has significantly deteriorated. Our request is fairly simple; we would like Shorewood Road added to the rural road improvement plan. Pave the road and address the drainage issues.” Coun. Lana Mitchell said staff are putting Shorewood on the list for 2025. “There's only so much in our rural roads budget. We might have to do half in 2025 and half in 2026, but we're hoping it all happens in 2025.” Article content Share this article in your social network Share this Story : Resident raises concern to North Bay council about "deteriorating" road Comments Join the Conversation Postmedia is committed to maintaining a lively but civil forum for discussion.
