A group advocating for better public transit in Guelph will be hosting a town hall next month on what is going on locally when it comes to transit, and what is being done to get more people to leave their cars at home.

The Transit Summit and Town Hall, hosted by the Transit Action Alliance of Guelph, “will feature prominent speakers … who will have information-packed presentations about local and regional transit,” according to a news release from the group.

After they speak, the individual speakers will be taking part in a scheduled two-hour town hall discussion on transit.

“This is an opportunity for the community to get involved, meet like-minded people, learn more about how transit works, and help shape the direction of our transit system,” Steven Petric, the alliance’s chair, states in the same release.
