STM service disrupted due to maintenance strike
On both Sunday, June 16 and Tuesday, June 17, the STM maintenance workers’ strike continues to affect bus and métro service across Montreal.
Service during peak hours will remain operational as follows:
Buses: from 6:15 to 9:15 a.m., 3:00 to 6:00 p.m., and 11:15 p.m. to 1:15 a.m.
Métro: from 6:30 to 9:38 a.m., 2:45 to 5:48 p.m., and 11:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m.
Outside of these times, transit service will operate at up to 50% capacity, which will likely result in delays and limited frequency.
