The Provincial Government has announced a Transit Referendum to be held in March of 2015. Losing this crucial\"Oct<\/a> vote would strand thousands.<\/p>\n

Chronic underfunding has plagued HandyDART for years. TransLink has been forced to resort\u00a0 to stop gap measures to stem a tide of ride denials.<\/p>\n

Join us for an open discussion of the need to provide a meaningful increase to HandyDART service, and the opportunity presented by the transit funding referendum.<\/p>\n

The referendum will be on the Mayors Council proposal which includes a 30% increase in HandyDART service hours over 10 years. This is an important step forward, although much more is really needed after a 5-year freeze and given our rapidly aging population. Come out on Saturday October 25 and get involved!<\/p>\n

It is time to stand together to ensure that transit is accessible to all!<\/p>\n
