We have officially entered peak construction season in Canada’s Capital. We have also entered the start of festival season, which is expected to amp up significantly in early-July. And as a result, we are getting a lot of traffic headaches. During your daily commute, which traffic route grinds your gears the most? How much of it is caused by traffic detours? And if you are right in the middle of a construction project, how much precious time are you losing because of it? Kristy Cameron sifts through the textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day.
