Canada Line experiencing 'lengthy delays' in both directions Friday morning
If you’re planning on taking the Canada Line this morning you should know there is a service disruption due to a track issue – and it’s causing lengthy delays.
According to TransLink, there is currently significantly reduced service between Langara-49th and Broadway-City Hall stations.
TransLink is advising customers heading into Waterfront that they must change trains at Langara-49th Avenue Station and again at Broadway-City Hall Station.
