ICYMI: City report says closed transit system would not improve safety yyc yyccc yyctransit

The report also calls for construction of hubs at certain stations for the operation of all these extra staff.

As for staffing costs, a partially closed system would need more station attendants as well as maintenance staff and a call centre, for an estimated annual cost of $23 million. The report going to council Wednesday recommends the city provide an immediate $3.4 million from the city’s fiscal stability reserve, better known as the rainy day fund, to be augmented by $6.7 million in next fall’s budget.Article content
