Columbia International College has partnered with Blue Line Taxi to implement a new safety measure – Emergency Taxi Vouchers.

The school will provide new students with an Emergency Taxi Voucher to ensure that they have a safe method of transportation in an emergency situation. This new safety measure is also designed to provide students with a sense of security when they venture off-campus.

Emergency Taxi Voucher sample

Use of the voucher
Students who find themselves in an unfamiliar place can call the toll-free number on the card for a free ride back to their residence or the Ainsliewood building. New students will receive the card in their residence welcome packages and can redeem it for one ride within the Hamilton-Wentworth region.
