I drive this highway and it’s scary to have no cell phone service, especially given the wildlife.Randi McGinitie (McCallum, 2021-07-28)

For what we pay for cell phone rates & the service we get it's nothing but a rip off . You should be able to use a cell phone anywhere these days . Things have gone modern except cell packages & cell service . All they mind is the big profits & don't put anything back in to it for our area . Just look at how much product comes down over bay des pour highway & goes back in over that highway . Very unsatisfactory as far as I am concerned .Dean Mullins (English harbour West, 2021-07-28)

This is something we’re in desperate need of.Leeanne Skinner (Gaultois, 2021-07-28)

The ambulance drivers are not even able to call ahead to emergency departments to let them know a patient will be arriving. This happened with my husband. The ablunace had no cell service and the hospital was not expecting us when we arrived. This problem affects many areas of care for residents.Sarah King (Milltown, 2021-07-28)

This needs to be fix...it is not safe driving upon our highway in bay d espoir .myself my mother and my brother drives over this road several times within the last twenty seven years...every year it seems the road is in desperate need of repairs...which in return can cause any accidents alone...the moose and caribou causes more and more accidents every year..its hard to see..Also I would like to add that if anyone had any accidents...how can they call for help...service is very very poor...makes one very uneasy..on a what if..cannot call for help..not safe..so with all this I give you one word of advise...this highway has been need of repair to provide the sick...young and old...a place where they know its safe for you to drive in case of a medical emergency here across the bay d espoir highway in order to get medical attention...do it for the people so we are saver..thank you

My family travel that highway almost everyday and if there is an accident I would want them to be able to reach out to 911 or someone for help. If they had to wait until someone came by and then that vehicle has to go for help it could mean life or death.Anne Bellows (Tumbler ridge bc, 2021-07-30)

Our highway is dangerous. It's 2.5 hours of thick woods, high moose and carribou population, and many transport trucks traveling. It can mean life or death for someone in an accident. People can't call for help and this is a serious issue!Hillary Vallis (Coombs Cove, 2021-07-31)

I am from Bay D'Espoir and it's ridiculous that all these communities are cut off completely for 129+ km and that highway is the only way to get to major amenities. Do betterDeanna Kearley (Halifax, 2021-08-01)

I travel this highway often and it is scary to think what may happen if there were an accident. Also I have a lot of family in the area and with no doctors, no cell service, it is not acceptable.Ashley Mugford (Portugal Cove, 2021-08-04)
