Appointment to the Go Transit Advisory Committee 0 Comments | Comment Now

I’m pleased to announce that I have been appointed to the new 15-member GO Transit Customer Service Advisory Committee effective August 2008. The committee will be responsible for reviewing customer concerns, complaints and expectations about GO services on behalf of the 190,000 daily passengers.

For the last 15 years my bedroom window has faced the Cooksville GO Station. As a result, I have developed an intimate awareness of when the system is running on time as I can hear and see the trains arriving and departing.

I am passionate about advancing the public transit agenda as it promotes environmental sustainability, builds strong urban communities, and most importantly, it encourages friendly social interaction among riders.

As a long-time daily and loyal user of the system, I am fully aware of the important responsibility and obligations that GO Transit has to people’s lives. I am confident I posses the necessary vision, insight, talent and energy to successfully help improve the GO system for all. I am honored by the endorsement of GO Transit to allow me to take part in this important responsibility.

Yours for an even GO Transit system for all!
