Be kind. Be thoughtful. Be aware.
Transit agencies throughout the Greater Toronto and Hamilton area, including Burlington Transit, are asking you and all our customers, to think about your fellow travellers with a disability - visible and non-visible.
As you travel on transit, think about what you can do to help others travel safely and comfortably. This can be as simple as getting up from a priority or courtesy seat or providing room while a person with a disability boards a bus.
Let’s make sure we all able to get where we are going.
