It’s the REM’s first birthday!

On July 31, 2023, the Réseau express métropolitain (REM) opened five stations and welcomed its first passengers on board. This was a major milestone for the teams, who continue to finalize construction of the network to Deux-Montagnes and Anse-à-l'Orme as well as preparations for the future YUL-Montréal-Trudeau Airport station. 

The first months of operating the new automated light rail system brought their share of challenges, which were overcome in collaboration with the REM operator, GPMM Operation and Maintenance. 

There is always room for improvement, and all our teams work daily to offer a service that meets the highest quality standards.

This first year has been marked by progress. Thanks go out to all our users and to everyone who contribute to building the network. The REM adds to the range of available public transit options, offering new possibilities for increasing mobility in Greater Montréal.
