Multiple Canada Line stations were closed during Thursday's morning commute due to a police incident.

TransLink warned its customers shortly after 5:30 a.m. about the service disruption, saying the incident was near Marine Drive Station. As a result, Marine Drive, Bridgeport and Langara stations were all closed.

For hours, trains ran only from Waterfront to Oakridge and from Brighouse to Aberdeen. Shuttle buses operated between Bridgeport and other stations.

Shortly before 8:30 a.m., TransLink said the police incident was resolved and regular service was resuming.

The Expo and Millennium lines were not impacted.

"We thank our passengers for their patience and regret‎ this inconvenience," TransLink said in its advisory.
