The City of Toronto might finally install dedicated red-painted transit lanes on Bathurst and Dufferin, but it will only happen if there is clear and widespread support from people like you.
Up to 75,000 people ride buses and streetcars on these routes every day. Dedicated lanes will make those commutes faster and more reliable. That means fewer missed appointments, less time stuck in traffic, and more time spent with friends and loved ones. Better transit also means more riders, less pollution, and less congestion for everyone.
City Council could vote on these lanes as early as June.
But despite how common-sense this solution is, it is facing fierce backlash. The anti-transit lobby is loud and well-organized. But we know that transit users like you also have power when fighting for what is right.
That is where you come in.
We’re asking you to send a message to your City Councillor, the TTC Chair and the Mayor to show your support for dedicated transit lanes on Bathurst and Dufferin. We can accomplish so much as a collective force, and we hope that you will join us in this fight.
