The six-alarm fire at Queen and Bathurst has caused massive disruptions to the Queen and Bathurst streetcar lines all morning, but you wouldn’t know it from looking at the TTC’s service disruption web page:

  • @Jacquilynne: Good point!

    I did a quick check of their Service Advisories page and there doesn't seem to be any place where they announce surface route disruptions. There is a page for route diversions for things like road construction, but not for disruptions.

  • interesting how the monitors in the subway, as well as the person who updates City TV news, were listing the disruption to the expected ground routes, BUT when I hit Spadina Stn I was informed that the streetcars wouldn't go south of College. They just snapped at us to "go take take the train..." Quite nastily too.

  • I took the Spadina streetcar today and they didn't manage to mention that it would be diverting at College until we were at Harbord. Lovely.
