Up Weston - A View On Construction

Today I took a trip up Weston Rd.  Not a far trip, just a short walk up the street, taking in the sites and collecting a handful of images along the way.  One thing that really stood out was that there is an awful lot of construction taking place and causing a horrible bottleneck in the city.  With the digging of the streets as they replace watermains from Lawrence Ave. to the ONT401 Highway, it has just caused a traffic nightmare! 

At least there is hope, with the construction project in the local area starting to near its completion.  It is still a few weeks away, at least locally, but hopefully the damage that has been done to the streets doesn't mean that we'll be seeing even more construction as they return to dig up the road to repave it.

Although, for those of you that are stuck in this kind of a mess, whether you are local, or abroad, you can just think to yourself....  What would I need to not have to sit in this kind of a mess?
Here's a hint!
