Toronto

The situation at Toronto Subway stations has become a source of great concern and frustration. There is now a recurring issue of motorcycles being present on subway platforms and subway cars, with the Spadina subway being particularly notorious for this problem.

It is disheartening to witness motorcycles on the platform, and riders are even taking these motorcycles onto the subway from that station in front of TTC staff.

What adds to the frustration is the apparent lack of enforcement of the subway rules by TTC employees, which clearly state that only bicycles are allowed, and nothing else. This prohibition extends to ebikes, motorcycles, and scooters, but it seems that this rule is consistently ignored, especially at Spadina subway station.

Yesterday, I observed 3 motorcycles and five large size ebikes on east-bound platform of the Spadina Subway - all of them being ridden, not one person had dismounted off them. They rode them directly on the subway, all of them in 1 single car. The TTC booth was staffed, and a TTC employee witnessed them entering the station without taking any action to stop them.

TTC subway and station cameras are clearly for show and TTC is not manning these cameras.

Tricycles and motorized bicycles are not permitted, nor are bikes with child carriers or trailers.
