19408 broke down at South Surrey Park N Ride yesterday. The power steering went out, almost impossible to turn the bus. There was a massive leak of power steering fluid under the bus.

I was driving... 😏

Yeah, I caught a 351 back to Steveston hwy and then I walked to RTC. The road mechanic and Supervisor attended and they said the bus needed a tow as it's not drivable. 

At least I made it to the Park N Ride as the passengers were able to catch other buses, I had a full load at the time! The bus drove fine up until I was exiting off to King George Blvd when it became evident the was no power steering.

CLEARED, but Knight Street Bridge was closed earlier this afternoon for an accident. This resulted in 2 artic shuttles (12001/12011) being sent out for the PM (No days) rush to help 430 passengers on the Richmond side, along with a few 40ft overloads on the 49 (presumably pulled off 405/407).

Expo line stalled trains last night at Broadway Station was due to a substation fault.

Broadway station is closed this morning on the Expo Line; trains turn back westbound at Main and Eastbound to both branches from Nanaimo.
