"Coun. Josh Matlow expressed concerns about the TTC's planning, stating, 'If plans are coming together close to kickoff, the TTC may need to scramble to fix things.' He emphasized the need for transparency in transportation planning."
"Joe Mihevc, another TTC board member, countered concerns by stating, 'The transit agency is not behind schedule on sharing plans,' and mentioned that a dedicated team has been working for months on a comprehensive plan."
Toronto is preparing for approximately 65,000 soccer fans during the FIFA World Cup, but the TTC has not clearly outlined its transit plans. Currently, only transit-only lanes on Bathurst and Dufferin streets have been announced. In contrast, Metro Vancouver's transit authority has already detailed a comprehensive plan, including dedicated shuttles and additional vehicles for crowd surges. Concerns have been raised about the TTC's transparency and readiness, although a TTC board member insists that a dedicated team has been working on a comprehensive plan that will be revealed soon.
