Deputy Mayor Jennifer McKelvie will be joining TTC leadership for an announcement Wednesday morning on increasing outreach support on the transit network.
Some of the other safety measures recently implemented by the TTC include have included increasing the number of Streets to Homes workers in the system, ensuring a more visible management and staff presence throughout the network, improving and adding cameras in all stations and on all vehicles, and having Designated Waiting Areas on every subway platform with recently-upgraded and easier-to-use two-way communications systems that link directly to TTC staff.
More than 20 Community Safety Ambassadors from the City of Toronto’s Community Safety Team have also been deployed in the system as well as more than 50 security guards who have “daily experience dealing with under-housed people in crisis” and are trained in mental health first aid, overdose prevention, recognition and response training, and non-violent crisis intervention.
