A watermain break near Queen Street and Carlaw Avenue snarled traffic on Wednesday morning, forcing the TTC to reroute one of its streetcars.
The pipe burst around 6am and there are concerns the gushing water could freeze due to the frigid temperatures.
Police closed Queen Street in both directions between Pape and Carlaw, and the 501 streetcar was on diversion to avoid the mess. TTC vehicles used Coxwell, Gerrard and Broadview, and riders could also use shuttle buses along Queen between Coxwell and River.
