The City of Toronto is set to replace aging subway cars on Line 2 Bloor-Danforth, after the federal government announced $1.2 billion in funding for the TTC. Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland emphasized the importance of having public transit that adapts to the needs of a growing city, highlighting a collaborative effort over a year to secure this funding for new trains.
The new trains are expected to cost nearly $2.3 billion in total, with the city, province, and federal government splitting the bill. Freeland noted that these new subway cars, being manufactured in Thunder Bay, Ont., signify a crucial investment in the city's transportation infrastructure as the current trains approach the end of their useful life.
