In the second of a three-part series on Gardiner Gridlock, CTV Toronto examines the impact of the latest round of expressway construction on businesses losing time and money contending with the congestion.

Klea Mosho is well-used to spending time behind the wheel of her little white Civic – she lives in Mississauga, Ont., and drives the Greater Toronto Area daily as part of her job as a rehabilitation therapy assistant.

“It has definitely made it challenging to see multiple clients in a day,” Mosho said. “It has made it difficult not only to get to the clients who reside in downtown Toronto, but also in other areas nearby.”It is a reality that the staff at her Burlington-based company are now facing across the board.

But the extra time and cost imposed on business as a result of that work worries the head of the Toronto Region Board of Trade. “I know when I'm driving to work, and you get hit with that traffic, it's construction season in Toronto, you start to think, ‘maybe there is a job that's closer to home. Why do I do this every day? I'd rather be with my kids,’” O’Rourke said.The Gardiner gridlock, he adds, is just another reason for big business to reconsider planting roots in the core., why would I keep it in Ontario? Ontario isn't proving to be the most corporate tax-friendly location.

“I am working with less clients now, and I've had to make accommodations for some of them,” Mosho said.
