For fun i followed that bus and it ended up arriving six minutes early, for a travel time of 11 minutes (down from 17). At this point it lowkey feels like cherry picking, since it’s a sunday morning (no traffic) and 11 minutes is already the best travel time i’ve ever had on a 747, but the point i’m sorta trying to make is that the 747 is a lot faster than people give it credit for. It’s a very good bus, even though the REM directly to YUL will be better in the end because it’ll me more consistent and more comfortable.
I do wonder if we could make temporary (or preferably permanent…) arrangements to lengthen the reserved lanes on A20 all the way to dorval circle, to improve travel time on the 747 in rush hour while waiting for the REM’s YUL branch to finish up
