No subway service on portion of Line 2 due to fire at Bloor-Yonge Station

TTC riders are facing major delays Tuesday morning as a portion of Line 2 is down due to a fire at Bloor-Yonge subway station.

Subways are not running between St. George and Broadview stations and shuttle buses are running.

Toronto Fire crews were called to Bloor-Yonge Station around 7 a.m. for a fire at track level.

Subway service was halted along a portion of Line 2 and trains were also not stopping at Bloor-Yonge Station on Line 1. Trains started running again around 7:30 a.m.

A short time later, subway service was once again not running on Line 2 between St. George and Broadview stations, and trains bypassed Bloor-Yonge.

Service has resumed on Line 1, but trains are still not running on a portion of Line 2.

Fire officials said the initial fire was extinguished, but crews responded to another fire at the track level at Bloor-Yonge Station. The second fire is now also out.

The cause of the fires is not yet known.

The investigation is ongoing, and there is no word on when service will resume on Line 2.
