There's a lot at stake for transit riders in 2018. In addition to upcoming provincial and municipal elections, the City of Toronto budget process is in full swing with no good news for transit riders (yet).
Toronto has spent years dealing with the consequences of underfunded public transit. Aging infrastructure, delayed repairs and subway slow zones have all placed pressure on a system that millions of Torontonians rely on. These problems cannot be fixed overnight and require sustained investment in the workers, vehicles, tracks and infrastructure that keep transit moving.
