Transit Toronto

A broken water-main

• on King Street West at University Avenue

wreaked havoc on TTC services Saturday, January 21 as water flooded into St. Andrew Station. Line 1 Yonge - University subway trains skipped stopping in the station after about 2:40 p.m. Sunday and the TTC detoured streetcars off of King West.
