FROM WIKIPEDIA:
Toronto's main public transportation system is operated by the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC).[56] The backbone of its public transport network is the Toronto subway system, which includes three heavy-rail rapid transit lines spanning the city, including the U-shaped Line 1 and east-west Line 2. A light metro line also exists, exclusively serving the eastern district of Scarborough, but a discussion is underway to replace it with a heavy-rail line.
The TTC also operates an extensive network of buses and streetcars, with the latter serving the downtown core, and buses providing service to many parts of the city not served by the sparse subway network. TTC buses and streetcars use the same fare system as the subway, and many subway stations offer a fare-paid area for transfers between rail and surface vehicles.
There have been numerous plans to extend the subway and implement light-rail lines, but many efforts have been thwarted by budgetary concerns. Since July 2011, the only subway-related work is the Spadina subway (line 1) extension north of Sheppard West station (formerly named Downsview) to Vaughan Metropolitan Centre. By November 2011, construction on Line 5 Eglinton began. Line 5 is scheduled to finish by 2021. In 2015, the Ontario government promised to fund Line 6 Finch West (line 7) which is to be completed by 2021.
Toronto's public transit network also connects to other municipal networks such as York Region Transit, Viva, Durham Region Transit, and MiWay.
The Government of Ontario also operates a commuter rail and bus transit system called GO Transit in the Greater Toronto Area. GO Transit carries over 250,000 passengers every weekday (2013) and 57 million annually, with a majority of them travelling to or from Union Station. GO Transit is implementing RER (Regional Express Rail) into its system.

Thank you for your support. Comment below so all of us can have a productive and insightful conversation about transportation!
I recently move to Toronto people always told me their transit is bad but in reality so far is being great, yeah some stations do need cleaning and sometimes there's lots of people but that's with every major city. I think so far the city is being doing good and sure there's road to improving.
Torontonians are notorious for complaining about the TTC. Try using another public transit agency elsewhere in North America, and suddenly the TTC seems like a dream.
rather than complaining I would pitch in and to make the improvements
@@Nunavuter1 True, but one has to remember that we could be so much better in terms of transit expansion. We've spent the last 20 years arguing where transit wants to be built.. instead of where it needs to be built. These politicians have wasted years doing nothing. Now we're facing the consequences because of this.
I really want to go to Toronto! This is my dream city!
It’s a great city
@@darkhoodx6487 I know
Well, hopefully you can come. I live in Toronto and have lived here my whole life, even though I was born in Ottawa. I love Toronto more than any other city in the world. One day, you'll come!
@@HAA0603 Yeah, just gotta wait a few years
Canada is one of my dreams.....😀👍🏻✌🏻
I agree👍
You are both welcome here
@Joshua Productions-ALT ACCOUNT Same
Funny thing is that I’m in the Toronto area now, in Georgetown. I want to go downtown Toronto but I’m with friends now. Great video! I like the new streetcars but LOVE the old original streetcars. I also love seeing Niagara Falls!!
I wish I was in Toronto right now.
Just a random assortment of vehicles on a random day. *That* is why this montage is a good.Thanks Timosha21!
Very fine stuff of trains and buses 👌❗🚌🚊🚇
3:53 GO Trains, my favorite
They've got everything there!
It's true, Toronto is spoiled. I've lived here my whole life and it's not nothing compared to my old city, Ottawa. But hey, it's not just Toronto.
I wish Houston had public transportation like this
Nice system. I've only been on the Toronto subway
TORONTO....The best overall system in North America. Why...because they use it. I've never waited more than 5 minutes for a Streetcar or Subway. And that's on a Saturday.
Very interesting video of differents types of transports of Toronto. Thanks you. Saludos cordiales desde España.
You went everywhere! You even went to Niagara Falls!
Very great and intresting vid. Greeting from UK
TTC-Ride The Rocket ! And the Trams ! They are The Bomb ! P.S.this is coming from a Guy living near Chicago-3 visits to the Big T.O-never a disappointment !
Sadly Toronto eliminated its trackless trolleys.
Tom Mc why were trackless trolleys eliminated San Francisco has America’s largest system
Well it’s hard
Perhaps that mode will come back. The trolley coaches that were eliminated in the early 1990s were old vehicles.
Cool video, nice sound...Big like from Romania
Metro , tram , bus
AS LIKE TRAVELLING , CANADA IS PLACE TO VISIT, PLUS MOTHER SIDE AS RELATIVES IN HALIFAX ,
Amazing video.
thanks you ..... !
The train at 2:46 seems modern
That’s TTC’s newest streetcar, The flexity outlook
well its brand new so it better be!
rob mausser Built In 2014
I have been in all of those
ride the rocket!
Would you rather: Be stuck on the 403, or take the subway?
Take the subway.
@@Ferreira0504 LOL TTC
Some new low floor articulated trolleys are using the pan while others are using the trolley pole. How is it determined which one to use?
The TTC began to upgrade from poles to pantographs as the new streetcars require more current for minor things like A/C.
Right now only the 509 Harbourfront, and the 510 Spadina have pantographs, while (as of 2018/2019) the 512 St.Clair began to get it's upgrades as well.
Thanks @@moho472! I visited Toronto for the first and only time back in 1995. I hope to come back and visit soon.
Nice
You got everything but the ALRV! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Light_Rail_Vehicle#/media/File:TTC_Bombardier_ALRV_4239.jpg
What route is the blue train at 0:47? Haven't seen that before. If someone could let me know please
It’s the RT line from Mccowan to Scarborough it’s the worst one out of all of them
augest 21 is my dads birthday
Is it 24/7?
OfficialMichellemarie certain trams run all night along with most buses. Subways run 0555-0145 or so. GO trains run past midnight.
why they speak Chinese ?
New York subway system is still supirior
Toronto is cleaner
Superior in what ? Size ? It is an overpriced leaking toilet with rats . Overall , the US transit infrastructure is behind Canada's. I live in NY and traveled to Ontario, BC and Quebec . Canadians tax money at work are more visiable vs NY State /NYC.
@@MultiVitoz Seriously? I have been to Montreal and Toronto and I couldn't believe how bad their road conditions are. In NY it isn't perfect but it definitely is far superior to those cities in Canada. Plus, Chicago, D.C, NYC are actually better than Toronto's transit even though they have their issues.
@@andreiplane8380 yeah, no.
ie
I don't like Toronto everyone smokes and there are weird people trying to take your money
Toronto and Ontario have very restrictive smoke-free laws so I don't know how or where "everyone smokes", unless in a private home or unrestricted outdoor area.
You have not been to Niagara yet.
I recently spent a week in Toronto and encountered no such people
That's everywhere.
Stop being paranoid and skittish
Sus it’s still my home and you should your criticism somewhere else you fucker
