The pandemic has changed the way we think about public services like the TTC. Transit doesn’t just get us from A to B, it is a lifeline that connects us to essential jobs, health care, and groceries.
It's more important than ever for transit riders to have a voice and share our vision. The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) is creating a 5-year plan for transit fares. Without input from riders like you, the new plan won't reflect our needs.

Speakers will discuss the TTC's plan to study fare policies over the next year, how transit in other cities compares to the TTC, and how you and your community can have a say about fares and get involved in the transit movement.
