STM consulting West Islanders on how to redesign bus network

STM officials note that with several major public transit projects being undertaken over the next few years, including the REM, the Pie-IX BRT, and in a few years, a potential Blue line metro extension, it's time to seek input and adapt its bus network in wake of these projects.

West Islanders are invited to sign up for public consultations being held by the Société de transport de Montréal (STM) regarding the redesign of its bus network in light of the future Réseau express métropolitain (REM), a light rail system with 26 stations across the Greater Montreal area.

STM officials note that with several REM stations coming to the West Island as well as the airport in Dorval, it’s time to rethink and adapt the local bus network.
