Transit Complaints

The Ontario Human Rights Commission has filed complaints against three transit authorities in the province include Thunder Bay Transit.

The commission says systems in Thunder Bay, Hamilton and Sudbury have failed to call out bus stops to their passengers, as ordered by the Human Rights Tribunal two years ago.

The commission argues calling out those stops is needed to give proper service to visually impaired passengers.

It's asking the Human Rights Tribunal to order the three transit systems to begin calling out bus stops within 30 days.
