TORONTO --
The Toronto Transit Commission says starting tomorrow, customers who use the Rocket Man or Transit mobile apps will be able to see real-time passenger counts on TTC buses.
Despite measures to reduce the number of passengers on TTC vehicles, many transit riders have expressed concerns about overcrowding on TTC vehicles amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
The new partnership, the TTC says, will allow customers to better plan their trips around the city.
"You’ll be able to see the volume of passengers on vehicles approaching your stop to help you choose which vehicle you’re most comfortable boarding," the TTC said in a news release.
