Summary

The Toronto region is the fastest growing urban area in North America. Without a regionally integrated transit system with frequent, all-day service, it will be impossible to efficiently connect people to jobs, housing and other opportunities. Congestion currently costs us $6 billion in lost productivity every year. The Toronto Region Board of Trade is uniquely positioned to look beyond city borders and put forward bold, strategic and cost-effective proposals for regional transit that take from global solutions and best practices.
