Ford admits it is a massive problem.

Following two crashes on Highway 3 in Essex County Wednesday morning, Ontario PC Leader Doug Ford committed to review the possible expansion of the highway from two lanes to four.

He says he understands it is a 'massive problem' but he wants to sit down with the community and ask the community what areas need to be twinned first.

Ford visited a farm in Woodslee Wednesday morning to release details of his plan to help farmers.

Expansion of the highway from Essex to Leamington has been at a standstill and the Ontario Liberal government recently informed Essex County Council that the stats did not warrant expansion immediately.
