The TTC Board met on October 6, 2025. Many items on the agenda were confidential in whole or in part, and the meeting immediately recessed into private session. Four hours later, the public session resumed.

Extended private sessions have been a “feature” of recent Board meetings, and this is a major inconvenience for people who have taken the trouble to travel to City Hall for deputations, or remained available online. In years long past, the Board scheduled an in camera session before the public session so that, usually, the public part started on time. They should reconsider this practice, or at a minimum advertise a long, planned private session in the agenda so that public attendees can plan accordingly.

Items of interested included:

• The CEO’s monthly report including an updated format for bus fleet and route performance metrics
• The Peer Review of asset management by the International Association of Public Transport (UITP)
• The Wayfinding Strategy
• Renaming of the Carhouse at Leslie Barns
