Transit & Congestion
Tackling transit congestion, gridlock, mobility barriers, and speeding across Scarborough Centre.
Transit congestion and gridlock are major concerns for residents across Scarborough Centre. Long commutes, mobility barriers, and unsafe speeding affect how people move through the city and directly affect Toronto's livability. My focus is on practical transit improvements, safer streets, and smarter traffic management so residents can get where they need to go more safely and more efficiently.
