Heavy thunderstorms flooded areas along the lake shore and forced the closure of one subway line while affecting access to Union Station during the busy rush hour commute on Friday. GO Transit was telling commuters to enter and exit through the main station building as pedestrian walkways south of Front Street between Bay and York had to be closed due to flooding. Train service continued. But Line 3 in Scarborough was shut down because of flooding at Midland Station. Shuttle buses were operating in the area. The heavy rainfall also caused some minor flooding at other TTC stations but trains continued to run on both Lines 1 and 2 without disruption — City News
