Service on the STM’s Orange line resumed after facing an interruption for nearly two hours Tuesday morning.

STM said the service between Côte-Vertu and Du Collège stations was down at 5:53 a.m. due to a problem in the signalling equipment.

STM now says the service is back to normal as of 7:37 a.m. after previously saying it will resume by 6:20 a.m., 6:40 a.m. and 7:15 a.m.
