LRT issues continued Sunday, Jan. 8, 2023, with multiple trains stuck on the tracks between Lees station and Tremblay station. Damaged cables hung over a train west of the Tremblay station Sunday.The latest problems started Wednesday overnight when, first, an eastbound train stopped between Lees and Hurdman stations and then a westbound train stopped in the same area a short time later.
Guerra said the freezing rain “probably caught us a bit by surprise — how quickly it happened”, but he said he doesn’t believe there are any issues with the system. OC Transpo will have representatives at stations to direct transit riders and answer questions.
