Subway service has resumed on Line 1 in Toronto after being delayed for nearly an hour Wednesday evening due to signal issues. 

As of 5:15 p.m. Wednesday, service had shut down between St. George and Finch stations, the transit agency said on X, formerly Twitter. 

A TTC spokesperson said service was back up and running just after 6 p.m. but riders should still expect some residual delays. 

The transit agency is still investigating the exact cause of the shutdown, the spokesperson said.
