    The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) says crews have made some progress in repairing a damaged cable signal near Union Station, which has increased wait times on a portion of Line 1.

    The TTC first mentioned the issue on Wednesday morning and provided an update on the restoration on Thursday.

    “Some good news on this one. TTC crews worked overnight and got some regular service back in the area of Union Station,” a TTC spokesperson said.

    Crews worked overnight to “safely fix this as quickly as possible.” There is no current ETA on when full service will resume.

    The TTC said transit customers will still experience delays and longer wait times of five to 10 minutes southbound from St. George Station to Union and northbound from Union to Bloor-Yonge.

    Trains are now operating at a reduced speed from St. Andrew Station to Union southbound only.
