Splitting a bus route per direction like this seems fine on paper, but in reality you’re making the coverage WAY worse.

Let’s say someone is at Gênes and Milan, they take the 141 to the Blue line in the morning, their commute to work is simple, a block away (100m), but going back home, they have to walk 900m…

Nostalgie STCUM Van Horne / Pratt

La vient d’en réinstaller 2 des années 90 sur Gouin dans le bois de Saraguay, ce qui m’étonne beaucoup (au moins ils ont mis le logo actuel de la STM dessus)

[Filyx20]

Well hello, this is brand new

I can’t see why they would add a whole abribus for the 202 unless they plan on adding more service at some point
(Would make sense SJ is one of the big 3)

4 121 en même temps au métro

[tcardinalsirois]

41-077 semble avoir une meilleure fréquence de mise à jour du GTFS qu’à l’habitude. 20-30 secondes au lieu de 40-60 secondes.

[Stu]

Je remarque une tendance de plus en plus fréquente à faire sauter des autobus dans l’horaire de plusieurs lignes. Il est fréquent d’ouvrir son Transit et de voir le prochain bus dans par exemple 3 minutes, pour ensuite tomber à -1min, -2mins… Jusqu’à -5mins et ensuite “pouf” l’autobus disparait sans être passé et on reprend le décompte à partir du prochain.

[Filyx20]

The 201 is a regular offender of that I open transit and I see the next one in in 65 minutes… It’s supposed to be one every half hour all day long

[tcardinalsirois]

Je connais quelqu’un qui a trouvé un bus actif de Brantford Transit (en Ontario) avec un textile de la STM. Est-ce que quelqu’un a plus d’information?!? Via Bluesky.

Does the STM have any plans of replacing the lighting at the Côte-Vertu bus terminal?

There’s a single light pole working for the entire terminal.

I tried contacting them, but there seems to be no option to do so.

Maybe it’s the City’s responsibility? When the bus stops on Greene reopened after the poste de district construction, the lights were out for a while and the STM told me to contact the City.

[coledev]

It’s actually the responsibility of the ARTM, who owns the bus terminal (for the STM one). For the STL side (the south terminal), it could be the city, but also likely the ARTM.

[tcardinalsirois]

Though is it the ARTM that operates the bus terminal?

[coledev]

Any maintenance or work that has to be done, has to be funded/approved by the ARTM. For example, just repainting new lines on the road, the STM has to ask the ARTM to either pay the STM to do the work or the ARTM does the work by itself. It is to a point that even the garbage cans are emptied by the ARTM (they pay a subcontractor).

[Filyx20]

And just to know why it’s a good idea to have everything owned by bureaucrats who can only cause delays…

Artm has basically caused dorval to rot… And pretty sure the other terminus to also rot…

[SkahHigh]

The STM technically manages ARTM’s metropolitan terminuses on the island but they’re pretty much bureaucrats so I agree with you
