This follows last month’s resignation of former CEO Rick Leary, who led the transit agency since 2017.
“Greg brings a wealth of experience to transit with a distinguished career that includes executive roles as the President of GO Transit and Chief Operating Officer for Metrolinx,” TTC Chairman Jamaal Myers said in a statement.
“He recently retired from CAD Railway, where he led the bid submission and contract negotiations for the fleet maintenance subcontract for Metrolinx’s ONCorr project.
“Greg has a strong reputation and is respected in the transit industry across Canada. He brings operations and capital experience at an executive leadership level, a deep understanding of transit in Toronto, and a network across the industry.”
Bruce Macgregor had been acting CEO and will go back to his role of Deputy CEO on Monday.
