๐London city councillors Shawn Lewis and Peter Cuddy propose a two-year pilot project to provide free London Transit (LTC) passes to Grade 9 students at Clarke Road Secondary School, aiming to enhance bus ridership and punctuality for students. The initiative, supported by the LTC board and Thames Valley District School Board, seeks to familiarize students with public transit and facilitate participation in extracurricular activities and part-time jobs. Funding sources, including reserve funds and government grants, are being explored, with the pilot's continuation contingent on sufficient ridership. Similar successful programs in municipalities like Oakville and Kingston offer precedents for the initiative's potential impact on transit usage.โ . ๐๐๐๐ฅ ๐๐ฌ๐ญ๐๐ญ๐ ๐๐๐ฐ ๐๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ข๐ง๐๐ฌ๐ฌ ๐๐๐ฐ ๐๐ซ๐ข๐ฆ๐ข๐ง๐๐ฅ ๐๐๐ฐ ๐๐ข๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ข ๐๐ก๐๐๐ค๐จ ๐๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐๐ข๐ฉ๐๐ฅ ๐๐๐ฐ๐ฒ๐๐ซ, ๐๐ก๐๐๐ค๐จ ๐๐๐ฐ ๐ฒ+๐ ๐๐๐-๐๐๐-๐๐๐๐ ๐ง๐ฌ๐ข๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ข@๐๐ก๐๐๐ค๐จ๐ฅ๐๐ฐ.๐๐ @chackolaw.ca . . #LondonTransit #PublicTransport #HighSchoolStudents #PilotProject #CommunityInitiative #TransitAccessibility #CityCouncil #YouthEngagement #LondonOntario #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews
