TTC Strike Information

As early as Friday, June 7, Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) Local 113 will be a potential strike position, which will significantly impact transit in Toronto. Please check back on this article for updates.

Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) Local 113, the union representing approximately 12,000 TTC operators, collectors, maintenance workers, station staff and other frontline TTC employees will be in a strike position as of 12:01am on Friday, June 7.

The impact of any strike action will mean that all buses, streetcars and subway lines will be shut down. GO transit and other lines operated by the province will be unaffected, and Wheel-Trans will remain in operation.

ATU Local 113 is asking for a wage increase, job security and additional benefits. For more information, please visit the TTC's website.

It is strongly recommended that if you rely on TTC to travel around the City that you make a backup plan as to how you will attend important commitments like work and childcare. These alternatives could include:

Working with your employer to accommodate working from home;
Working with friends, family and colleagues to carpool to work;
Reaching out to family to assist with childcare; and
Finding alternative modes of transportation, including GO Transit, cycling and walking to work where feasible.

We will post updates on this webpage as they are received.

TTCRiders Frequently Asked Questions

June 6 - 5:30pm

While talks remain ongoing, no deal has yet been reached as of the time of this publication.

In the event of strike action, ATU Local 113 has agreed to continue running subway service until it ends as usual between 2:00am and 3:00am tomorrow. This agreement doesn't cover streetcars and buses, so please make other plans if you were relying on them after midnight tonight.

Wheel-Trans will remain in operation.

June 7 - 9:30am

Late last night, a framework settlement was reached between ATU Local 113 and the City. While the deal still needs to be ratified by union membership, it critically will allow transit to operate as normal.

The details about the settlement need to be ratified between union membership and the TTC Board. It is possible that union members will reject the settlement, so a strike--while less likely now than it was yesterday--is still possible. Please stay tuned.
