Jane-Finch residents have a lot to say about the transit needs in their communities[/caption]
Last month TTCriders, the United Way Jane-Finch Action for Neighbourhood Change committee and the Toronto Environmental Alliance met at the North York Civic Centre to discuss how residents of Jane and Finch and surrounding neighbourhoods feel about public transit. We decided that the best way to engage Jane and Finch residents was to host an information session to explain a little bit about the history around public transit in Toronto and how it relates to present and future transit service. Our goal was to use this information session as a starting point to have a dialogue with the community about what we as citizens can do to shape the future of public transit in Toronto.
TTCriders will be hosting an information session next Friday March 14th from 10:00am-noon at Brookview Middleschool 4505 Jane St. north of Jane and Finch.
There will be a presentation and discussion period followed by more fun activities. You guessed it: bring your whole family as there will be colouring books for the kids!

On September 18th, TTCriders hosts the latest instalment of Transit Talk. We want to hear from you about how we can all work to improve the TTC.
It’s no secret that the TTC is underfunded. This Transit Talk is an opportunity to discuss and come up with a plan to increase funding for the TTC. It's also an opportunity to discuss how we should invest in the TTC to make it better. If you were TTC Chair/CEO, how would you spend new money? Buying more buses? Reducing Fares? Improving service? As a rider, you have a clear picture of where the TTC’s service deficiencies lay. So why not speak up?
