TTCriders March 2022 Book Club: Subway-building costs (Week 2)

This our events has already taken place.

Join TTCriders as we read "Station to Station: Why Subway-building Costs Have Soared in the Toronto Region," by Stephen Wickens, transit researcher and journalist with a four-decade career at four Toronto-based daily newspapers. NOTE: Stephen Wickens will be joining our 1st discussion session only on March 21.

Each week will start with a brief recap followed by questions and discussion. You should come even if you haven't completed the reading! The TTCriders book club is a friendly place to learn more about transit and from each other so we can better organize for public transit improvements.
