What key benefits will Transit City bring to Toronto and local residents in particular?
Transit City will create a fast and reliable transit network to serve communities across Toronto. Transit vehicles will be separated from traffic lanes to to provide faster, more reliable transit service. Even as traffic congestion grows, Transit City will provide residents with fast, accessible, reliable, and frequent service. Furthermore, the new light rail vehicles will have low floors to provide accessibility to persons with mobility challenges and parents using strollers. By significantly enhancing service, more people will find transit an attractive alternative to the private auto – so we are taking a major step towards building a “Transit City”!
