Building better transit

Pre-COVID-19, about 90% of people traveling to Pearson arrived by car. While it will take years for aviation to fully recover from the impacts of COVID-19, road congestion and lack of public transit will become a problem again - that's why it's important for governments to plan smart investments in transit now.

Transit

Our transit vision: Union Station West

A new transit hub located at the airport can be the solution that makes it easier to get around the region.


GTA Transit Map 

We have the best location in the West GTHA to connect the broader region and reduce road congestion.
 
A new transit hub at Pearson Airport can help Southern Ontario:

  • Stay on the path for continued sustainable growth and prosperity
  • Take cars off the road and reduce greenhouse gas emissions
  • Connect workers to jobs and help employers attract and retain talent

Pearson has already begun evolving into an important crossing point for regional transit. Getting to, from and around Pearson is faster and more convenient with the addition of new bus routes – but we must do more.
