The Toronto Transit Commission is holding a pair of very different events that are open to the pubic in the next week.
First is a Customer Town Hall on Thurs. Nov. 21 from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Toronto City Hall, 100 Queen Street West, in the Council Chamber. Starting at 6:30 p.m. people can get specific information about TTC initiatives and speak one-on-one with TTC staff in the rotunda.
The public forum will kick off at 7 p.m. and wrap up at 9 p.m. People can ask questions, make comments or offer suggestions for improvement at the TTC. Senior TTC staff will be there to listen and address issues as they arise, hearing from as many members of the public as possible in the two hours allotted.

As seating is limited, admittance is first-come, first-seated. Those unable to attend can follow along via Twitter, using the hashtag #TTCtownhall. American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation and closed-captioning will be available at the meeting. The meeting will also be live-streamed on Rogers. Visit http://www.rogerstv.com/ttc to access the live web stream.
