Transit services won’t be cut this fall
The STM got a little extra cash from the ARTM so it won’t be cutting services this fall as previously hinted.

Well that’s a relief – but will they restore rush hour service to pre-pandemic levels, or just not cut what reduced service we have now?

This article in La Presse has more detail:
3% overall service increase
Improved service on 75 bus lines
Some lines will have much more service: 15% increase on 24 Sherbrooke, 12% on 18 Beaubien
No increase in metro service, but frequencies will be adjusted

Thanks, DeWolf.
No specific mention of the 55. I waited nearly half an hour the other day for the 55 north at 17:30 and of course it was jammed when it showed up.

Yes it’s funny I don’t remember the 24 being as insanely overcrowded as the 55 can get – I take them both.
