Most of all we hope that everything works, and that people come away from this experience with a good impression of the TTC.
But MOST MOST of all, we want a win from Team Canada! Enjoy the games!
- We’re hoping that through this everyone realizes that dedicated transit lanes work and can move more people efficiently through the city.
- We hope the city sees the benefit of true active signal priority and implements it city wide.
- We hope to see more service improvements become the norm.
Is the TTC ready to host the World Cup?
TTCriders' Wilkie says they'd be a lot more ready with more effective signal priority on more routes, & if dedicated transit lanes on Dufferin & Bathurst went all the way up to Eglinton. He also calls for some temporary service increases to become permanent!
Happy Team Canada Soccer day!! May your goals be plentiful, your signals prioritized and your lanes dedicated.
People keep asking us “will the TTC actually work during the games?”
We hope so! But it’s the legacy they leave behind that’s important to us:
Riders were at the TTC Board today! We spoke up in favour of real platform edge doors, more compassionate approaches to community safety, and against the deployment of enforcement in subways.
Good day to speak up for safer transit ✊😌
After years of advocacy for dedicated transit lanes in this area, we're really happy to finally see them here, and see them working. Next stop? Extending them north of Bloor, and painting more lanes to get transit moving on other routes.
A "World Class City" shouldn't have a subway that sleeps in on a Sunday morning!
The TTC has plans to open the subway earlier on Sundays. We'll keep up the pressure to fund service improvements necessary for this and other ridership growth priorities.
If you want to take action for improved service, consider joining TTCriders ahead of the election season as we push candidates to prioritize transit 😉
Last weekend, we celebrated the completion of dedicated transit lanes on Bathurst and Dufferin with a group ride-along, visiting shops along the way!
With faster and more reliable transit, it's easier than ever before to visit the local shops that make Bathurst and Dufferin so great 🥰
