The TTC descended into chaos as trains skipped St. George subway station, leaving passengers bewildered.

Amidst the turmoil, Toronto artist Nile captured attention with his stunning paintings inside TTC stations, adding beauty to commuters' everyday journeys. As construction impacts TTC buses on King Street West, commuters are advised to brace for route changes and delays.
