ABOUT TTCRIDERS:
TTCriders is a grassroots transit advocacy organization that gives Torontonians who use the TTC a voice. It emerged as a response to the tens of thousands of transit users who said that they want better transit in Toronto.
We have become Toronto's most active and high profile public transit advocacy organization.
Our goal is to build a TTC that works with and for transit riders. Our Vision for a public transit system is based on the following guiding principles:
– Fair and affordable fares
– Building modern, fast transit into all corners of the city as fast as possible
– Making public transit fully accessible transit
– Frequent service that connects all our neighbourhoods
– Environmental sustainability
– Respect for front line TTC workers
– Respect for fellow TTCriders
