I am sure the number exists but I don't know where to find it, what would the TTC fare have to be per trip to cover operating expenses?
All the talk about tolls on this road and that to help finance transit kind of smells like "dump on those filthy drivers when ever possible" instead of spreading the pain around a little. How about a toll on transit riders too, after all it is eventually to their advantage to improve the system.
Enticing drivers to leave the car at home and take transit is a nice thought but is simply not a viable choice for many drivers. Drivers are not going to trade a 30 minute drive for an 90 minute bus and street car journey at any price.
