Just wondered how the access road is. Will be coming up in Aug. Just wondered how often they are grading the road. Is there a number that I can call to find out. Please let me know. Thank you.

You can call the Municipality (Public Works) 705-569-3421. The road this year has not been too bad considering the rain. The road was graded last week and is holding up fine. I think the crappy summer, price of gas, and the low value of the U.S buck has kept the traffic to a moderate level this season. The less the better.

The access road is a high-traffic, all-season road used by seasonal and permanent residents on Lake Temagami and maintained by the municipality. If you are concerned that it is a former logging road that could be washed out and unusable, don't be. It is always open.

I know that it is always open but i have also been down that road when the washboard is so bad that it has shaken things apart on our van and our boat. So i was just wondering when the last time it was grated.

The road is graded weekly by Town staff. This year it has been smoother than most as traffic has been lower.
