6ds agoIt's the busiest time of the year for tax filing agencies. But for one in Morris County, it's been especially eventful.
Roger Moss is the owner of Montville Financial Group. The business offers tax preparation and investment, insurance and financial planning.
Moss and his partner have been staying at the Courtyard Marriott in Parsippany to avoid the long commute caused by the I-80 sinkhole in Wharton.
"It's insane and it affects the cost of the business,” Moss told News 12. “We have not raised our prices for our clients. We feel it's not their fault or anything, but it's definitely impacted us financially...and unfortunately the [long commute] from Hackettstown, my partner is coming from Blairstown, it does take a toll on you."
The Department of Transportation says that two westbound lanes are expected to reopen by May 4. Then, two eastbound lanes will reopen by May 18.
The department says it expects the full restoration of all lanes in both directions by June 25.
