Common questions
Who is responsible for fixing potholes in Regina?
City streets are the City of Regina's responsibility, handled through its Roads and Transportation department. Provincial highways running through the city, including portions of Ring Road, the Highway 1 bypass, Lewvan Drive, and Arcola Avenue, are maintained by the Saskatchewan Ministry of Highways, sometimes under a shared arrangement with the city through the Urban Highway Connector Program.
How do I report a pothole in Regina?
For city streets, submit an online Service Request at regina.ca. For potholes on a provincial highway, contact the Saskatchewan Ministry of Highways at 1-844-SK-HIWAY (1-844-754-4929) or through their website. You can also pin the pothole on RoadRot's public map so other drivers know about it and to use the email-your-rep tool if you want to nudge a local official directly.
What's the worst time of year for potholes in Regina?
Spring thaw is the obvious answer, but mid-winter thaws are a documented recurring problem too. When Regina gets a warm stretch in January or February, roads that were frozen solid start to break up, and road crews have to scramble with temporary cold-mix patches until the weather stabilizes enough for permanent repairs.
Can I claim compensation for vehicle damage caused by a pothole in Regina?
You can submit a damage claim to the City of Regina, but the city generally needs to have had prior notice of the pothole and a reasonable amount of time to fix it. Claims are evaluated case by case and are frequently denied if the city can show it wasn't aware of the hazard. Documenting the pothole with photos, a timestamp, and a RoadRot pin creates a public record that can support your account of when and where it existed.
Does RoadRot automatically report potholes to the City of Regina?
No. RoadRot is a public crowdsourced map, not a city reporting system. When you drop a pin, it creates a visible public record that other drivers can confirm, but nothing gets sent to the city automatically. If you want to contact the city, you'll need to submit a Service Request at regina.ca separately, or use RoadRot's email-your-rep tool to send a message to your councillor or another representative yourself.
