The worst of the STM strike has thankfully passed and things are about to get better (finally).
After 3 full days of bus and metro services only operating during morning and afternoon rush hours, as well as late in the evening, service is slightly changing for the next 5 days.
Here’s what to expect for the next 6 days:
- June 12: Transit services will run at full capacity (100%) during peak periods, and at 50% capacity during off-peak hours.
- June 13 to 15: Transit will operate as usual throughout Formula 1 Grand Prix weekend. This exception was made following a mutual agreement between STM maintenance workers and the Administrative Labour Tribunal to ensure service for the high-traffic event.
- June 16 and 17: Similar to June 12, service will be offered at 100% during peak hours and 50% during off-peak periods.
Despite service being available all day, the STM is suggesting its users to work from home if possible.
