Wear black, and bring candles, flowers, art, or mementos is the directive being given to those who attend a Wednesday evening 'memorial' for the Scarborough RT line.
In the days following the derailment, the TTC said that the line would be offline for about three weeks as it investigates what happened, but it has yet to provide any indication that the 6.4-kilometre, six-station line will be brought back online anytime soon. For now, shuttle buses are running in place of the trains.
Earlier this week, newly appointed TTC Board Chair Jamal Meyers told CP24 that he is"operating under the assumption that the SRT line…will not be operating again because of the expense to fix it." Scarborough MPPs Andrea Hazell and Doly Begum along with community members are set to speak at the event. Time will also be set aside for members of the public who wish to say a few words.
“Luckily it wasn’t fatal, but this should serve as a wake-up call that there’s a lack of investment in the city’s transit system.”
