A historic agreement was reached between the Niagara Transit Commission and the Amalgamated Transit Union Local 846, marking a significant milestone in public transit. Effective from 2023 to 2027, this five-year agreement unites previous contracts, harmonizes wages, and promises annual pay increases, reflecting a commitment to operational efficiency and enhanced service in the Niagara region.

The NTC holds its position against budget cuts, prioritizing equitable access to transportation amid proposals for fare increases and service reductions.

Amidst a financial dilemma, the Niagara Transit Commission grapples with budget constraints and aging fleets. St. Catharines Mayor Mat Siscoe strongly opposes proposed fare increases and service reductions, advocating for essential bus replacements and a steadfast commitment to transit service levels to meet environmental targets.
