TTC riders are one step closer to being allowed to take multiple transit trips on a single fare after the TTC board approved its transfer policy Tuesday. The TTC’s transfer policy would only be available for Metrolinx’s Presto card users, the report said. Metrolinx has told TTC staff it will take until next August to implement and cost a one-time set-up fee of $5 million, which several board members called into question. “Honestly, I can’t fathom why in the 21st century it would take as long as Metrolinx claims it does,” said Councillor Mary Fragedakis, a TTC board member. “We will lose money because of this (policy),” said Councillor Glenn De Baeremaeker, a TTC board member.
