Every four year term Toronto politicians keep trying to solve the problems of TTC service and congestion. This is my answer to the problem..
We define an area encompassing the core of the city. As an example let us say an area bounded by Lawrence Ave. to the north, Victoria Park Ave to the east, Lake Ontario to the south and Islington Ave to the west. All vehicles entering this zone must have a permit to do so..say a sticker on their license plate. This sticker would be purchased yearly and an absence of this sticker would subject the driver to a fine enforced by Toronto Police.
The above would lessen vehicle traffic in the city core and add to heavier TTC usage. All monies obtained by the city by this method would allow City Council to immediately build whatever new subway routes they wish and to expand bus services.
This is a simple answer to funding our transit problems. It will immediately make funds available for the expansion of the subway and bus services.
