Green told CP24 Tuesday that the TTC will communicate any new information with members of the public as soon as possible.“Although, I have to say, the TTC is such a disaster right now, I usually end up walking a significant way anyways,” she added. “ A strike will disrupt the lives of hundreds of thousands of transit users and affect everyone in Toronto,” spokesperson Shelagh Pizey-Allen said. “For many Toronto residents, the TTC is our only option to get around to work, school, caregiving, and appointments.”“For those with access to vehicles, gridlock will get worse,” she warned.
