Toronto drivers brace for significant disruptions as construction on the Gardiner Expressway starts, closing one lane for almost a year. Critical repairs are needed for five bridges from Highway 427 to the Humber River. Local residents have expressed frustration due to ongoing construction, with some like Joelle Regnier planning to leave home earlier for work. Concerns about the city’s preventive maintenance practices are also voiced, highlighting dissatisfaction with the timing and communication regarding the urgent repairs.
"I think one has to wonder when there is critical work that needs to be done suddenly, urgently from one day to the next, one has to wonder about preventative maintenance and how well that's being done with."
"Already my heart is like, oh my goodness, what road am I going to take? I know I'm speaking on behalf of many residents here. It's discouraging and a little bit disheartening."
