Niagara Transit Commission seeks public input to shape the future of transit in Niagara

The Niagara Transit Commission (NTC) is excited to invite the public, community organizations, and stakeholders from both public and private sectors to actively participate in shaping the future of transit in the Niagara Region.

The NTC has initiated two pivotal projects aimed at enhancing public transit across the region. The Facilities, Strategic Asset, and Service Network Master Plan, led by consulting firm LTRT Inc. will guide the optimization of infrastructure, service routes, and operational strategies to better meet the needs of our communities.

In addition, the NTC has partnered with HDR Inc., a leading branding and marketing firm to spearhead rebranding and marketing initiatives. This collaboration aims to create a distinctive and enduring brand identity for Niagara Region Transit; one that resonates with the community and promotes greater public engagement with transit services.

The community’s input is vital to creating a transit system that truly serves its needs and reflects its values.
