The poll also notes that creating better public transit is the top issue for respondents, followed closely by providing suitable housing options for the unhoused. “I am not surprised by the increasing importance of better transit as a concern for residents. Increasing traffic, with more housing units coming on stream, is of concern to both residents and business owners,” Patrick Sullivan, President and CEO of the Halifax Chamber of Commerce, said. “We are looking forward to the Joint Regional Transportation Agency’s report and the support that both the province and the municipality will provide to transit.” The survey finds three in ten people remain unsure who they will support for mayor.
