Where's my bus? How Premier Ford's cuts will affect your neighbourhood

Is your bus at risk of being cut? The 24 bus routes pictured below carried fewer than 4,000 daily TTC riders in 2018.2 Could your bus be up for evaluation as a "low performing" route? 

Join us to demand permanent provincial transit funding from Premier Ford! Riders urgently need more bus service to fix crowding during the pandemic, not cuts and privatization. 

Take action!

Thank you to Henry Lin for designing these maps and posters.
