Report a pothole in St. Clements

Why St. Clements gets potholes

St. Clements sits in the Red River Valley climate zone, where winters are severe and spring thaw hits hard. Frost penetration in this region typically reaches 1.5 to 1.8 metres during an average winter, according to National Research Council of Canada data, and that depth of ground freeze means serious heaving when meltwater gets under the pavement and refreezes. The clay-heavy soils in the St. Clements area make things worse: Red River clay is particularly prone to frost heave and embankment instability, which is why the RM has documented recurring slope movements on local road embankments and has had to fund formal remediation projects to address them.

How to report potholes in St. Clements

St. Clements is a Rural Municipality and doesn't have a 311 system. To report a pothole on a local road, contact the RM of St. Clements Public Works directly at 204-754-6245, or reach the municipal office at 1043 Kittson Road, East Selkirk. The RM website at rmofstclements.com is worth checking for any updates to that process. For potholes on provincial highways like PTH 9 or PTH 59, those roads fall under Manitoba's Department of Transportation and Infrastructure, and you can report conditions by calling 511 or visiting manitoba511.ca. RoadRot adds something different: you can drop a public pin on the map, let other drivers confirm it, and use the built-in email tool to send a complaint directly to your municipal or provincial representative, putting the problem on record in a way that's visible to everyone.

Common questions

Who is responsible for fixing potholes in St. Clements, MB?

It depends on the road. Local and municipal roads within the RM are maintained by the RM of St. Clements Public Works department. Provincial highways passing through the area, including PTH 9 (Henderson Highway) and PTH 59, are maintained by Manitoba's Department of Transportation and Infrastructure.

Does St. Clements have a 311 pothole reporting line?

No. St. Clements is a Rural Municipality, not a city, so there's no 311 service here. Your best bet for local roads is to call the RM Public Works garage directly at 204-754-6245, or contact the municipal office through rmofstclements.com.

When is pothole season in St. Clements?

Spring is the rough stretch, typically as temperatures start swinging above and below freezing in late February through April. Meltwater infiltrates the road base, refreezes, and lifts the pavement, then thaws and leaves a void underneath. The clay-heavy soils in this area amplify that cycle compared to regions with sandier ground.

How do I claim vehicle damage caused by a pothole in Manitoba?

You'd typically need to file a claim with the relevant road authority, either the RM of St. Clements for municipal roads or Manitoba Infrastructure for provincial highways. Document the pothole with photos, note the exact location and date, and contact the appropriate office promptly. Manitoba has specific rules around municipal liability and notice periods, so it's worth looking into those requirements before you file.

How does RoadRot help with potholes in St. Clements?

RoadRot is a public crowdsourced map where you can pin a pothole, rate how bad it is, and add a photo. Other drivers can confirm your report, which builds visibility and a paper trail. There's also a built-in tool that lets you email your municipal or provincial representative directly about a specific pothole. RoadRot doesn't forward reports to the RM automatically, but a public map with confirmed community reports is a different kind of pressure.
