Metrolinx Accessibility Advisory Committee is seeking Volunteers
Metrolinx is looking for committed individuals to serve on our Accessibility Advisory Committee. This committee plays an important role by providing advice to Metrolinx as it plans, builds and operates an integrated accessible transportation system. If this volunteer opportunity appeals to you, we invite you to apply.
Metrolinx is an agency of the Government of Ontario. We are committed to being a leader in accessible transportation, consulting widely and incorporating best practices to enhance accessibility in every aspect of our services.
Metrolinx services include GO Transit, UP Express, and PRESTO. We are responsible for planning new rapid transit services across the region, working closely with municipalities. Metrolinx also works with transportation partners to improve service coordination in the Greater Golden Horseshoe.
There are currently open positions on the committee. Priority is given to individuals who have disabilities, seniors and people working in agencies supporting individuals with disabilities. If you have knowledge of and an interest in accessible transportation issues and are committed to making services better for everyone, we would like to hear from you. It would be an advantage if you have experience with reviewing facility designs, as well as with using GO Transit, UP Express, PRESTO, and other public transportation services. Meetings are usually held on weekday afternoons.
