Road doesn 't meet MTC's standards PORT MCNICOLL -- Residents here have complained to council that a road that had been extended through Ninth Street last year isn't up to scratch. There are cracks and holes in the road and it seems the developer who built it isn't under any obligation to fix it. According to Reeve Robin Talbot the village has no performance bond covering the work. Ministry of Transportation and Communications won't certify the road until the necessary repairs are completed so a sign noting the road has not been assumed by the village will remain erected here. However Reeve Talbot feels the village will have to take a colder look at the situation to see what can be done to bring it up to the proper standard.
