Highlights
Canada's urban transit industry continued to recover in August, with the number of passenger trips reaching 94.6 million.
In August, many employees returned to their workplaces on a full-time or hybrid basis, and people have resumed their typical summer activities. In August, the transit industry has now recovered almost two-thirds (64.7%) of its pre-COVID-19 pandemic ridership from August 2019, up from the 62.5% recovery rate observed in July 2022.
