Laura Dean

An accessible transit system is designed so that any person with mobility needs can navigate it safely and independently. 
Real time information on arrivals and delays would be my main priority at transit stations. If there is a shutdown, the TTC should prioritize informing riders before they pay a fare to enter the station. I would not prioritize wayfinding and new signage.  Scarce funds cannot be spent on creating new number schemes. True accessibility means people can actually get where they need to go. Improving transit reliability must be the number one priority.  
Wheel-Trans is a vital service for moving people to work, school and appointments. I'll protect and expand door-to-door service for the people who need it.
I would prioritize snow clearing at bus and streetcar stops after snowstorms.  Making transit convenient and accessible combats road congestion and maximizes the impact of our public investments.
