Bombardier will deliver at least five fewer streetcars than promised in 2017, the company announced Thursday, drawing the ire of Mayor John Tory and the TTC.
Bombardier blames the latest delay on supply chain issues, but says there is a "turnaround plan" in place. The company's new goal is to have delivered 65 vehicles by the end of 2017.
"This is not the result we worked towards and this is not the result we will accept for ourselves and for the people of Toronto," Bombardier spokesperson Eric Prud'Homme said in an email statement.
"We own this challenge, and we fully intend to do everything necessary to mitigate the impacts."
TTC officials say the 47th and 48th streetcars arrived in Toronto this week, and CEO Andy Byford's latest report says 43 are in service.
