Subway service resumes on section of TTC's Line 2
The TTC was reporting no service on Bloor-Danforth Line between Kipling and Jane due to a hydraulic fluid leak. The section has now reopened. An error has occurred during playback. Please try again later. [1000/0] The TTC says subway service has resumed on a section of Line 2 this morning following a 'hydraulic fluid leak' at a west-end station. Service was suspended between Kipling and Jane stations as a result of the leak at Islington Station but trains were running again by about 7:15 a.m. Thursday's delay comes one day after TTC CEO Mandeep Lali issued an apology for a significant disruption on Line 1 during Wednesday's morning rush hour commute. In a statement released Wednesday, Lali said the issue stemmed from a late clearing work zone near Eglinton West Station, where crews were making overnight switch repairs. 'Unfortunately this resulted in delays getting trains out for service and led to significant inconvenience for our customers,' Lali, who officially took over as the CEO of the TTC last month, said. 'For this I apologize. As CEO, I want to assure everyone that I am accountable and I have asked our team to take immediate steps to mitigate such events in the future.'

Subway service down for portion of Line 2 Wednesday morning, TTC says
Subway service is shut down for a portion of Line 2 this morning due to a hydraulic fluid leak, the TTC says. Service is down between Kipling and Jane stations as of 5:34 a.m., the transit agency said in a post to X. Shuttle buses are running between the two stations. The shutdown is because a TTC work car leaked hydraulic fluid onto the track, which crews are in the process of cleaning, a TTC spokesperson said. This is the second day in a row the TTC has had service disruptions on one of its subway lines. On Wednesday morning, a chunk on Line 1 was shut down between Lawrence West and St. George stations for close to two hours. That service disruption was because additional time was needed to complete and clear overnight track work at St. Clair West station, a TTC spokesperson said.
