  • Skytrain not running between Columbia Stn and Scott Road Stn due to a track issue during afternoon commute

It's been a messy commute Tuesday with SkyTrain service on the Expo Line between Surrey and New Westminster disrupted.

The interrupted service is because of a SkyBridge track issue between Columbia and Scott Road stations.

The whole thing started Monday night and still hasn't been resolved. 

Translink took to Twitter to provide the latest update. 

None of the the other Skytrain lines- The Millenium Line, Canada Line, and Production Way are impacted by this track issue.
