It's time for one last push to save TTC service

Toronto transit riders could be in for a rough 2012.

In addition to January's fare hike, the City is poised to slash service on busy bus and streetcar routes and is planning to cancel an order for 108 badly needed new buses.

On January 17^th, Council will hold their final vote on the 2012 City Budget which includes these cuts to TTC funding. We have between now and the 17^th to make our voices heard and have our Councillors say no to TTC service cuts.

TTCriders is working with Together Toronto to send a clear message against TTC cuts and fare hikes. Please sign this petition and tell your Councillor to stop the TTC cuts in their tracks!

Thanks to the thousands of TTCriders who have phoned or written their City Councillors, the TTC has stopped half of the planned cuts to our rush hour bus routes! However, the remaining rush hour bus routes and all of the non-rush hour bus and streetcar routes are still slated to be cut if nothing changes at the January 17th City Council meeting. If we don't stop these remaining cuts, TTC service will permanently take a major step backward.

It’s time for one last push! We need our Councillors to hear this message today!

Please phone, email or write your Councillor today and tell them to stop TTC service cuts.

📸 Rally to Open the Crosstown

On February 19, 2025, TTCriders held the Rally to Open the Crosstown at Yonge and Eglinton to call for answers about the Eglinton Crosstown and Finch West LRT projects. Promised opening dates for the LRTs have come and gone, while transit costs have skyrocketed under Metrolinx. Transit riders are looking for answers and credible opening dates for the Eglinton Crosstown and Finch West LRTs.

TTCriders asked every party to invest in running TTC service and new LRTs with a 50% operating subsidy for local transit systems, and to give the TTC back control over running Toronto transit, to keep costs down and increase accountability.
