Toronto police are warning of traffic delays on the Gardiner Expressway due to a water main break early Monday morning.
Around 4:15 a.m., a water main broke in the area of the Gardiner Expressway and Grand Avenue in Etobicoke, police said in a post on X.
Police said they are assisting with traffic, with eastbound and westbound lanes reduced following the break. They said drivers should expect delays in the area and consider alternate routes.
City crews are working to repair the water main, but lane closures are expected to stay in place for the rest of the morning, police said.
With freezing temperatures Monday, roads in the area are icy, police said, and motorists are urged to drive with caution.
