Seniors and disabled are encouraged to try increasingly accessible conventional transit by Tess Kalinowski, The Toronto Star, Nov. 16, 2007.
An aging population is fuelling the growth of the TTC’s most vulnerable and costliest clientele: Wheel-Trans riders.
Now the city’s transit system is gently but radically altering how it serves the swelling ranks of paratransit users by integrating more of their trips into conventional transit.
The move will capitalize on the growing accessibility of the TTC, which is supposed to be fully accessible above and below ground by 2020, and help contain the cost of Wheel-Trans.
