Advocating for the use and advancement of an interconnected transit system in Windsor-Essex 🇨🇦🚌
We are extremely disappointed to see Essex County Council decide to not pursue financially supporting the LTW 42 transit route. This is a short-sighted decision that will set back a push for a more robust regional transit system to connect all of Essex County. Full press release: shorturl.at/kVUgb

In the wake of Pope Francis’ death, many people online are sharing this observation from his 2015 environmental encyclical Laudato Si’. What do you think about his take on public transit? +

We had a great turnout and it was awesome to connect with more members of the community! Some folks weren’t there for the big group photo, so if you’re not pictured here, just know we still appreciated your support and presence.🤍

Join us in mourning this Thursday April 24th at the new Celestial Beacon. Please dress in black & bring a sign to pay your respects.

The Transit Funeral is not disruptive, & we ask that you allow the Grand Opening to continue as normal, we will just be a silent but noticeable presence.

There’s a lot of transit history in the Windsor Detroit area! Check out this image from The Detroit Free Press on September 2nd 1928 🗞️📸

If concern is about making revenue shouldn’t we continue the service that makes the most back?

This isn’t equitable and it’s not financially wise. Keep the tunnel service open for people that need the service for connections, not corporations.
