"She said commuters can expect a train on Line 1 to arrive every two and a half minutes with 10 additional trains running during the morning rush and 15 additional trains running during the evening rush. People taking the 505 Dundas or 511 Bathurst streetcars can expect increased service every six minutes at peak times on weekdays. Transit riders deserve reliable, frequent transit. And with more people coming back to the office, going to school, daily commutes will be faster and less crowded,"
"This marks the latest in a series of announcements by Chow in recent months to increase train service and safety for Toronto commuters, including the addition of crisis workers around the clock on the "u" portion of Line 1 starting this Saturday. The changes in service are being done without any increases to fares, said Chow, adding ticket prices last went up before she came into office."
"Line 1 carries more than half a million riders every single day more than any rapid transit system in Canada. You deserve transit that shows up when you need it.
