Free Transit is great, but even better is *expanded* transit. That's what increases access and mobility the most while also driving down emissions and congestion.
And that's why the best part of this proposal is this:
“The Greens' proposal also calls for hourly services on key regional routes“
That will require a big new investment into something that has been neglected for decades.
The #BCNDP should be copying this promise!
