The Toronto "Get on Board" Transit Town Hall will connect transit officials and local decision makers with community members to discuss the accessibility barriers of the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC). We will also reveal the results of our secret rider survey and identify next steps to create meaningful change on the accessibility of conventional transit in the city of Toronto.

We hope you can join us to share your experiences and ideas of how we can improve transit accessibility in Toronto!

If you have any questions about the Town Hall or would like to be involved in the larger campaign, please email advocacy@cnib.ca.or call 1-800-563-2642.
