I’m not sure about now, but when the REM opened an RTL manager told me they are just in the garage. But it seemed like he was saying it would never be used again, mainly because of wear and tear going over the bridge

There’s 1 still left because that one was in an accident or something
21054’s still at the shope due to it being fire damaged a few years before
That’s interesting, because it is fully unsigned and unmarked.

Makes sense tho. They can change it on the fly

C’est un accotement donc elle ne peut pas être marquée comme une VR.
Possibilité de l’ouvrir lors d’évènements exceptionnels sur demande (ex: panne du REM).

Yes it was a reserved lane before the REM, but now it’s the shoulder so it can’t be marked.
99% of the time now it’s an emergency stopping zone.

With them still allowing a regulated bus lane on the bridge at least this summer will be fine with the choke point and I’m sure cdpq is paying them for that reserved lane… Bonus for SJSR getting a traffic skip

SJSR stops going to TCV in June.

It would seem to me with this announcement they should postpone that until the fall. Maybe even keep the TCV ticket office ready to reopen to help guide riders for those few summer weeks?
It is done

This is where the private part of the project kicks in: it’s their (CDPQi) money and their losses for delays. You can bet that they’ll open and operate as soon as possible.

Unless the money runs out, or the supply chain goes tits up, the private sector usually delivers projects on time, and often under budget. But sometimes, they bite off more than they can chew.

If money runs out at CDPQi we’ll have way bigger problems than an incomplete transit system.

So if it’s not finances, and it’s not the supply chain, we can legitimately infer the third cause.
