The City of Thunder Bay, Ontario, officially launched its annual pothole repair program on March 9, 2026, to address road damage from the winter. City crews are currently mobilized to fix cracks and holes caused by the seasonal freeze-thaw cycle that affects local infrastructure.

Repairs are being prioritized on busy, high-traffic streets to ensure the safety of drivers and commuters. Once these main roads are addressed, crews will move their operations into residential areas across the community.

Residents are encouraged to help identify hazards by reporting them through the online reporting portal or by calling the municipal dispatch line at 807-625-2195. According to a city announcement, these reports allow crews to find and fix issues more quickly to keep the roads safe.
