Multiple streetcar lines are detouring after a 505 Dundas streetcar derailed on Thursday morning, the TTC says.
The streetcar derailed near Dundas Street and Bathurst Street around 7:20 a.m., police said in a post on X.
Damage to overhead wires has caused power issues and forced the 505 Dundas and 511 Bathurst streetcars to detour, the transport agency said.

Eastbound and westbound Dundas Street are closed at Bathurst Street, and southbound Bathurst Street is closed at Dundas Street.
No injuries have been reported in the incident, officers said, adding people should expect delays in the area and consider alternate routes.
