Subway service has been suspended on a stretch of Line 2, making for a chaotic rush hour commute home.
According to the TTC, trains are not running between St. George and Keele stations due to an injury at track level.
The transit agency said just after 3:30 p.m., shuttle buses were running along the affected route, but there was no further update from transit officials until a social media post around 6 p.m., when they simply reiterated that “shuttle buses are running,” while providing alternative travel plans.
“GO Transit is available at Kipling, Dundas West, Union and Mimico for the cost of a TTC fare,” the agency said.
There was no indication of when subway service might resume.
Commuters took to social media to question where and when the shuttle buses would be arriving, as large crowds appeared outside affected stations.

Meanwhile, service was disrupted on Line 1 between St. George and Lawrence West stations due to a “security incident.” That incident is also prevented Eglinton LRT trains from stopping at Cedarvale station.
According to the TTC, service on Line 1 resumed just after 5:30 p.m.
