Traffic is so bad in Canada’s financial capital that a majority of Toronto residents are prepared to endure around-the-clock construction to improve the situation sooner, according to new polling data.
--
“Major employers in the downtown core — a lot of the banks and the big business consulting firms and so on — would very much like to have their employees in the office at least three days a week, potentially four and beyond,” Giles Gherson, chief executive officer of the board of trade, said of his conversations with the city’s business leaders.
The board of trade’s survey found that 86 per cent of respondents believe there’s a traffic “crisis” in the region. The online poll of 1,000 residents who live in the Toronto region was conducted over a one-week period in June by public opinion firm Ipsos.
