Ward Advisory council Back in Action!

After a long break at year-end, WAC33 (our local Ward Advisory Council) met last night at Fairview Mall Library. They have started plans for an exciting and informative year of meetings.

A major information session for all residents will come in April as WAC33 invites staff from the TTC and Go Transit, as well as other guests active in the Transit planning scene. They will discuss our transit services and present their long range visions for Toronto and the GTA.

At the meeting, the members put forward the need to broaden a TTC info night to the other players in the mass transit planning community. We all agreed that all are important since so much of our transportation challenge in Ward 33 comes from the massive numbers of GTA commuters who travel daily through our part of town. We will announce dates soon for the March meeting of WAC33, where I will present some background on the issues and some preparation for our April event where residents can question the experts. Stay tuned to this blog for confirmation of dates as soon as we confirm the line-up of guests.
