On Monday March 8th, TTCriders attended a Transit City open house near Midland and Eglinton about the expansion of the Scarborough RT. More than 60 people attended hoping to learn more about the project and give their feedback. Information about the project was provided through a video presentation and display panels that outlined the plans for the expansion and construction. Residents could speak with consultants, employees of the TTC, and others to ask questions about the project. Information was only available in English.

Over the last week much of the media focus on the TTC has been the recent announcement of selecting Steve O’Brien as head of the TTC Customer Service Advisory Panel. With that position already chosen one of the public participants will be selected via a Twitter post from an interested volunteer. More budget news as this will be the first year that the province will not be giving the TTC a handout to make up for their budget shortfall and hinting that in the future any money they do receive may be conditional.
