Service & Reliability

"Reliability is one of my highest transit priorities. Riders need to know the bus, streetcar or subway they depend on will get them where they need to go.

I support accelerating RapidTO, but I cannot promise every identified corridor will be completed within one Council term. Toronto has a large transit network, and projects require design, funding, consultation, construction coordination and Council approval. I won’t promise a completion date one councillor cannot control.

I will advocate for Ward 14 service, including the 72 Pape, 25 Don Mills, 62 Mortimer, 87 Cosburn, 8 Broadview, 31 Greenwood, 22 Coxwell, 56 Leaside, 83 Jones, 506 Carlton, 505 Dundas and 504 King, plus Line 2 and connections to the Ontario Line. I will push for measurable improvements in frequency, reliability, slow zones and transit priority, working with riders and TTC staff to identify where service fails and get practical improvements moving."

"Reliable transit will be one of my priorities. I support RapidTO and other transit-priority measures where the evidence shows they will improve service safely and effectively. However, I don't believe I should pre-commit to delivering a particular RapidTO project in Ward 14, or to voting for projects elsewhere in Toronto, before reviewing the proposed corridor, design, safety analysis and local impacts. I will consider each project on its merits. We also need to address subway slow zones, state-of-good-repair needs and streetcar reliability, while holding the TTC accountable for measurable improvements in service."

"We need to manage *the experience* of TTC. I have proposed consultations for new rider comfort standards as well as rider-perspective art installations."

"Riders deserve service that is frequent, reliable and worthy of the fares and taxes they pay. I support expanding transit-priority measures, repairing slow zones faster and investing in state-of-good-repair work. I would work toward completing a RapidTO project in Ward 14 using safety evidence, operational data and meaningful community consultation. I also support a network-wide streetcar improvement strategy, with specific measures selected according to the conditions of each corridor and consideration given to accessibility, local businesses and surrounding neighbourhoods."
