Here's what we think about SmartTrack

This position will be updated as new information becomes available.

We support bringing new rapid transit to Toronto.

Toronto badly needs more rapid transit to relieve congestion and give people more transit choices.

SmartTrack should be operated at TTC-level fares.

Riders should be able to switch between different transit systems at no additional cost.

SmartTrack should be funded through progressive taxation, not by the sale of public assets.

SmartTrack should also have:

Many stops in our neighbourhoods
Five minute service
An alignment that benefits the most number of Torontonians
Complementary services

SmartTrack should be publicly built, operated, and maintained.

We also support the Crosstown West LRT extension.
