A TTC bus was out of service Friday afternoon in the westbound lane of Moore Ave. just west of Bayview Ave. The giant-sized tow truck needed to lug a bus had to park adjacent to a concrete divider causing a bottleneck. It pushed motorists onto the curb to get by. It was a slow hour til the bus was finally towed away about 4 p.m. An earlier version of this post said the vehicle in question was new, but that appears to be wrong. The correction comes from reader Wilson Lau and The Bulldog knows better than to argue. Mr. Lau is a keen observer of the TTC and is known to post information about the quality of service and other matters. He says this is bus 1236 and if his eyesight is good enough to tell him that, we accept it. Bus 1236 it seems would be much older than the 2017 Nova Bus diesels, which appear similar, at least to us. Sorry for the confusion and thanks to Mr. Lau for his correction. .
