WHEN: June 16, 7 pm<\/span>
WHERE: Committee Room 2, City Hall, Second Floor (100 Queen St. W.)<\/span><\/p>\n

National Geographic magazine recently named the TTC’s 501 Queen streetcar route as one of the world’s most scenic trips by transit. It’s also one of the longest streetcar routes in North America, stretching from Long Branch in the west to Neville Park in the east.<\/p>\n

For daily passengers, however, the trip often seems more stressful than scenic and the longest route often results in a long list of passenger frustrations. Passengers talk about inconsistent service, irregular schedules and unexpectedly short-turned trips that often seem to occur daily for regular 501 users.<\/p>\n

“Fixing the 501: A Queen Streetcar Update” is a public forum to hear from transit riders about their concerns and for TTC staff to talk about how they propose to improve the service. Representatives of other City of Toronto divisions will also attend.<\/p>\n
