My point was that it’s reported you need a “Zone A” fare, but also that “[t]his fare is valid for 120 minutes across the entire STM bus, the metro network and the REM.” So I can get a Zone A and go all the way across the SdC Bridge to Brossard? Or change at BF and all the way to DM?

Entire STM bus [entire STM bus service service], and the metro network and the REM [no mention of the entire for those]
Although I agree it should be worded better because they use the word network which implies all of it
Voici l’horaire estival du vol STM 815 prévu entre Rem Des Sources et l’aéroport YUL, au départ de STM et via GTFS.
This is the summer schedule for the planned STM 815 going from Rem Des Sources to YUL Airport from the STM through GTFS for the summer.

J’espère juste que cela a été arrimé aux passages du REM.

Le REM n’a pas un horaire précis si je ne m’abuse, donc ça doit être à peu près impossible.
ça pourrait être pertinent pour cette antenne de mettre des heures fixes prévisibles étant donné qu’il ne passe pas souvent.

On the website they now mention the departures of the bus are coordinated with the REM:
Son horaire sera coordonné avec celui du REM.
Its schedule will be coordinated with the REM.

Samedi après‑midi, le 13 juin 2026, une usagère du REM accompagnée de son bébé dans une poussette est demeurée bloquée dans l’ascenseur à la station Des Sources pendant quelques minutes.
Les équipes de sécurité du REM, ainsi que les pompiers, sont intervenus rapidement et ont procédé à leur libération avec succès.

I’m surprised the bus is dark green!

I’m failing to see the link with the color scheme.
An airport shuttle bus operated by the STM but connected to the REM but financed by the airport…?

I’m a little confused too because the sign leading to the 815 is blue on this falling apart sign, and the in the GTFS it’s blue as well. In the branding from the airport it’s purple… not sure why so many different colours!

Well I have a one minute transfer time between the REM (on schedule) and the 815 (also on schedule) we will see how this goes…
Made it, the bus was 2 mins late ! But, no luggage supports

It’s been a year since I brought attention to the city the bad traffic light timing on Sources/Hymus
Today, I saw four cars run the red during the green phase for pedestrians. I keep seeing people not cross in time.
The engineering department knows the traffic timing is bad, yet does nothing and gives no explanation.
How should I raise it further? Cause at a certain point, it’s negligence on the part of the city for doing nothing if someone gets hit, even if it wasn’t them that messed up the calculation.

That intersection is awful. When you cross towards the south, there’s no pedestrian light.
And it’s hard to access the button to activate the pedestrian light on the northwest corner, especially if you’re on a bike or disabled. (I took a photo a couple of days ago cuz of how bad it was.)
EDIT - I just sent a request to ask them to fix the sidewalk near that button. Request number is 9EJ9UT if you want to call the city of Pointe-Claire and support my request.

That actually used to be there, but it was never repaired after road work in 2014. It’s extra bad, since 40-ft trucks take that corner too narrowly, and can come too close to where people are standing.
But since that involves actually pouring concrete to repair it, I didn’t even bother trying to report it.
Edit: Also the entire intersection is being redone in a couple years

I am not sure if you are a resident of Pointe-Claire or not (I’m in DDO), but it may require you to bring it up in person at municipal council with the mayor and the councilors in the room. Typically question period is before all the motions, so you could make your point and then leave or stay for the rest. Next session is September 8.
Just like DDO, Pointe-Claire also has a Traffic Committee that you may want to forward your concerns as well and I believe they would have the most influence in fixing this intersection.
I would also bring it up to the councilor of that particular district, which is Mike Potvin of District 8 – Oneida I believe. When I contacted the PC councilor of District 6 for the craters on Fairview is when things started moving.
I wouldn’t consider it redundant at all to inform the city in those three ways. I’m assuming you already did for one of them.

Regarding this subject of the traffic light in Hymus/Des Sources, I would say that, by experience of what I saw, the demerged cities in Montreal, since becoming once again independant in 2000’s, don’t necessarily have the specialized teams nor professionals unlike the main city of Montreal which have many specialist workers and dedicated scientific and engineering teams to take care of its own infrastructures.
I mean, we can look for example at the interchange of Woodland avenue with highway 20, near Beaurepaire train station, which is a hell of an interchange with four traffic light intersections and a very busy railroad crossing with a hundred of trains crossing each days. Even if there were many complaints for years regarding this interchange from local residents, the city of Beaconsfield doesn’t have its own dedicated engineering team, or sufficient funding, to take care of that unlike Montreal:
