Meet @shelaghpa (@ttcriders), the transit advocate who’s trying to get Toronto back on track — by Gideon Forman (@DavidSuzukiFDN) #topoli tvo.org/article/meet-t…
2/2 we’re working with TPS and TFS, but service in the area could be impacted for a couple of days. We apologize for this inconvenience and thank customers for their patience. Follow @TTCnotices and subscribe to service alerts for real time updates. ttc.ca/my-ttc-eservic…
ICYMI. Fire at Islington stn yesterday. Still no subway service both ways btw Jane and Kipling. Shuttles running but will be slow in mixed traffic. Ride GO on TTC fare from Kipling or on Lakeshore West as alternative. Crews still investigating cause and extent of damage. 1/2
Use Wheel-Trans? Send a message that you do not want the Family of Services to become mandatory! Take the #TTC online survey by Tuesday, April 30: survey.forumresearch.com/SE/1/TCQ5/ If you have questions about the survey, contact Wheel-Trans (email [email protected] or phone 416-393-4111).
Got a parking ticket this week— a $30 mistake I was more than willing to be accountable for. Just forgot to tap on the streetcar, and an extremely aggressive fare inspector told me I had commited a “serious offence”, one that’s gonna cost me $425.
Happened upon this when walking Penny this morning. I love fun props when they're not being used by Stephen Holyday.

PRESS RELEASE: Transit users deliver oversized “fund evasion” ticket to Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland ttcriders.ca/fundevasion #TTC #topoli
We just delivered a “fund evasion” ticket to Finance Minister @cafreeland It's time for MPs to stop evading their responsibility to fund the #TTC. Riders are asking federal MPs to chip in for new subway trains & speed up the Permanent Public Transit Fund. ttcriders.ca/fundevasion
Register for webinar Thurs April 25 (12-1pm) about direct correlation between vehicle front end height and pedestrian death. Huge pickup trucks and SUVs are disproportionately involved in crashes that kill and severely injure people outside of cars. Link: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regist…
Federal MPs have committed FUND EVASION! Take action with us this Thursday, April 25 at 7:45am as we hand out flyers to #TTC riders outside Spadina Station. Help riders tell our MPs to step up and invest in new subway trains and TTC service! RSVP: ttcriders.ca/fundevasion2024
always nice to pick up a free copy of @TheGrindTO from a subway station or community centre and see @ttcriders' hard work in print 🫡
"The #TTC is ready to accept bids. Mayor Chow has identified [new trains] as a priority. Provincial money is on the table. All that’s missing is a federal government that recognizes their role in making sure things don’t go off the rails." @GraphicMatt thestar.com/opinion/contri…
Elton Campbell spoke with @DesmondCole about TTCriders campaigns and how poverty and over-policing connects to public transit, in @TheGrindTO thegrindmag.ca/city-council-g…
The emergence of a progressive agenda "is forming and faltering and taking shape within self-organized groups of people who are surviving the city’s neglect, and who are building their own agenda for safety, fairness & prosperity." Article by @DesmondCole thegrindmag.ca/city-council-g…
Transit advocacy group TTCriders is disappointed that the federal government isn't matching #TTC funding. "Ordering subway trains is not like ordering something on Amazon. It takes years to deliver them and the funding is needed as soon as possible." cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

WE DID IT TRANSIT TWITTER
While the intention was to provide a faster option for people travelling between Union and Pearson, I’ve heard riders’ concerns about servicing Weston and Bloor stations along the UP Express line. I’ve directed Metrolinx to not proceed with these changes.
Minutes ago, the provincial government announced that Metrolinx will not be proceeding with their proposed changes to UP Express service—this is a win for our community. Thanks to all who spoke up. x.com/prabsarkaria/s…

It was great to be among disability community allies like @ttcriders and accessible transit champion, Mazin Aribi. Disabled residents deserve a TTC that works for them, too! #ToPoli #TransitEquity
We attended today’s #TTCWheeltrans consultation on its #FamilyofService program. After a long presentation by WT, many folks during Q & A, told stories of unsafe & inaccessible travel on conventional transit. Others challenged the rosy picture being painted by WT speakers.

But what if, like I do, you use the Bloor stop to get to the airport because you live closer to that stop than to Union?!?! I hate it here 🙃
"The move to reduce the popular stops at the Bloor station (at Dundas Street West) and the Weston station — which line up with TTC connections — from every 15 minutes to every half-hour was buried in other transit announcements Monday." thestar.com/news/gta/up-ex…
