Transit

• Driving Sustainable Transit

As Canada's largest public transit system and the third largest in North America, the TTC is uniquely poised to positively influence public health by altering its procurement process. The GPP serves to better align the TTC's purchasing practices with the City of Toronto's objectives to improve their environmental performance, address climate change, improve local air quality and encourage sustainable development. Organizations integrating "triple bottom line" (environmental, social and economic) considerations into their core business practices, including procurement activities, often experience challenges and the TTC has been no exception. The sheer scope of their effort is further compounded by the size, diversity and complexity of the organization. The TTC has hundreds of staff invol...

I'd been leaning toward reacquainting myself with public transit, the unwashed masses, the madding crowd in the poor man's limousine, for some time. Then, in a two-week period in July we spent $270 filling the family van three times, and I toppled headlong toward the nearest 7-Eleven to buy bus tickets. I was looking forward to a faster, easier ride this fall when transit business picked up as the work season resumed. Alas, Navigo had me back on three buses and with longer commutes. It was hard to believe, so I persisted with my same route: As it turned out, I could still take the same two buses, but now as one reaches downtown, the other leaves at the same place, across the street. My four-minute grace period to transfer evaporated at Fort and Portage. The first day I narrowly made it;...
