The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) has announced that trains will not be running on a section of Line 2 due to an "injury on the tracks." The transit agency informed commuters via a post on X (formerly Twitter) shortly after 10:15 a.m. on Tuesday that service was suspended between Ossington and St. George stations. In lieu of trains, shuttle buses have been arranged to transport passengers.

By 10:33 a.m., the TTC stated that Line 2 between Ossington and St. George stations would remain without service while the agency addressed the injury on the tracks. Shuttle buses were en route to provide alternative transportation.

The cause of the injury was still unclear at the time of the announcement, though Toronto police reported being dispatched to Bathurst Station in response to a "subway disruption." As of 10:17 a.m., police were on the scene investigating the incident, with train service halted at the station. Commuters were advised to utilize alternate routes.

This marks the second significant disruption for TTC riders in the morning hours; earlier, Line 6 Finch West was shut down between Finch West and Humber College stations due to a system failure, though service has since been restored on that line.
