  • A SPECIAL REPORT by Marilyn Churley
    What if the TTC disappeared? What would be the economic, environmental and health impacts on Toronto and its residents? TORONTO WE WITHOUT COULDN’T TRANSIT? AFFORD IT. A SPECIAL REPORT By Marilyn Churley 54926-1 Churley Report.indd 1 2/22/08 2:10:05 PM ABOUT the TTC he Toronto Transportation (later Transit) Commission was created in 1920 by an Act of the TOntario Legislature following a municipal public referendum that approved public operation of all streetcar networks in the growing city. The TTC then purchased and took over management of Toronto’s privately owned transit services when their franchises ended in 1921. The TTC expanded steadily and the first subway, on Yonge Street, was completed in 1954, the year that Metro Toronto was created by merging several suburbs with the core city. The TTC today is the third largest mass transit system in North America, after those in New York City and Mexico City. It operates three subway lines and one rapid transit line with a total of 69 stations. There are also 149 bus and streetcar surface routes. In 2007, the TTC carried about 450 million passengers. The TTC’s Wheel-Trans service provides door- to-door services for persons with physical disabilities for the same fare as other riders. The TTC employs approximately 11,000 people; most are represented by the Amalgamated Transit Union Local 113, which was founded in 1899. An excellent capsule history of the TTC and its privately-owned predecessors can be found at http://transit.toronto.on.ca/spare/0012.shtml. ABOUT MARILYN CHURLEY s one of Ontario’s most prominent environmentalists, Marilyn Churley has been at the forefront Aof influential environmental legislation and activism for more than 25 years.
