The Ontario government is investing in transit infrastructure in Peel Region.
Almost $3-million dollars is being put into modernizing and improving accessibility for the public transit system.
Seniors and people with disabilities will benefit the most with increased accessible transit capacity, improved quality, and access to transit.
69 new buses are being purchased that can carry up to six wheelchair passengers in Caledon, Brampton and Mississauga.
PRESTO electronic fare collection systems will be put into place for Peel Region’s TransHelp fleet, with the installation of 145 portable tablet electronic payment units.
Officials say the changes will allow residents with disabilities to travel without barriers.
