""This is a transit-first approach, focused on helping large numbers of people move around in a safe and efficient manner," said Sharon Bollenbach, executive director of Toronto's FIFA World Cup 2026 host committee."
"Officials say they've learned lessons from that and other big sporting events, and are vowing to be ready in June."
Toronto is preparing for the World Cup with a transportation plan that includes street closures, parking restrictions, and enhanced public transit. Over 300,000 visitors are expected, prompting officials to encourage alternative transportation methods. The plan aims to facilitate safe and efficient movement, learning from past congestion issues during the Blue Jays' World Series. Coordination with various agencies has been prioritized to minimize disruptions for residents and businesses during the event.
