A better ‘Better Way’
The TTC has announced $21 million in service improvements, consisting mostly of added bus service on some of the city’s busiest bus routes. Starting Feb. 18, the TTC will have 30 new buses on the street during the morning rush hour – 40 during the afternoon peak – and over the next year the commission is promising 500 new buses and 400 new drivers to help ease Toronto’s transit crunch. “The new, improved service will result in less crowded vehicles and more convenience to our customers at all times of the week,” said TTC chair Adam Giambrone. “These increases are just the first in many that will be made this year.” What’s your view? Will the service improvements make any difference to your commute? Are you tempted to leave our car at home and take The Better Way?
