Wheel-Trans community feedback

The TTC is committed to making the transit system more accessible and equitable for all customers. Please join us as we conduct in-person and online community consultations to listen to your feedback on improving the Wheel-Trans service and Family of Services (FOS). 

We invite all persons with disabilities who use the TTC, including Wheel-Trans, support persons and members of community-based organizations that support or advocate for people with disabilities to participate. Your feedback plays a crucial role in shaping decisions concerning accessibility at the TTC.
