The TTC has launched a new public awareness campaign aimed at preventing sexual harassment, racism, homophobia, and other troubling acts on the transit system. The campaign, dubbed “This Is Where . ,” was unveiled on Wednesday, and includes a website as well as posters that will be placed on vehicles and in stations. The awareness campaign is accompanied by a new app that allows transit users to report incidents to the transit control centre via their smartphones. At a news conference at North York Centre station, TTC Chair Josh Colle called the initiative “probably one of the most important campaigns the TTC has undertaken in recent memory.”The agency’s chief customer officer Kirsten Watson said the campaign and the SafeTTC app were aimed at “making a safe system even safer.”
