How frequent will rail shuttle departures be? The rail shuttle will depart from the Deux-Montagnes station every 30 minutes during the morning and evening rush hours, and every 60 minutes outside rush hours. Rush hours will be extended on weekdays: 5 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. in the morning, and 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the evening. 2. Will bus departures from the Bois-Franc station be coordinated with the arrival of rail shuttles? Departures of bus shuttle 964 from the Bois-Franc station toward the Côte-Vertu metro station will be synchronized with the arrival of trains. Three buses will be boarded at a time until all passengers have been transported to the Côte-Vertu metro station. 3. How will boarding bus shuttles work at the Bois-Franc Station? Three STM buses will be boarded at a time. It will be possible to board the bus by any door, without payment. Other buses will be waiting for more passengers until everyone has been transported. Staff will be on site to help with boarding. Each bus has 35 seats and a capacity of 60 to 65 people. 4. Will a bus boarding platform be built in the Bois-Franc station? A platform with a canopy will be built to allow users to board bus shuttles. 5. How long will bus shuttle 964 need to reach the Côte-Vertu metro station? Travel time will be about 15 minutes during rush hours. The bus shuttle will travel on the reserved lane on rue Grenet. Please note that about 15 more minutes will be needed for the connection between transportation modes, including getting off the train, walking to the bus boarding platform, boarding the bus, and accessing the metro station. 6. How will evening rush hours work, given that the rail shuttle will depart every 30 minutes? Bus shuttles 964 will depart from the Côte-Vertu station to the Bois-Franc station. Upon arrival, the train will already be at the station for boarding and will stay there until the next departure, so users will be sheltered from the weather. 7. Can we park at the Bois-Franc station to use bus shuttles during the work? It is possible to park there. About 550 parking spaces are available. 8. Major work is planned at the Côte-Vertu metro station. How will users be impacted by the work? The work should begin in summer 2020 and is expected to take 3 months. Details on the closure will be available in early 2020. Bus shuttles will be redirected to another metro station of the western branch of the orange line. The STM and Mobility Montréal will send communications to users in due course. Mitigation measures — Deux-Montagnes line and other train and bus lines 9. Will preferential measures be implemented to cut bus travel times? Preferential measures for buses, such as reserved lanes and bus priority signals, are planned along key road axes, including rue Grenet, boulevard Saint-Jean, boulevard Jean-Talon, boulevard Pitfield and boulevard Côte- Vertu. Users of bus shuttle 968, which links the Roxboro-Pierrefonds train station and the Côte-Vertu metro station, will benefit from new bus preferential measures to optimize travel times on boulevard Gouin and boulevard Pitfield. Bus shuttle 919, which links the Acadie, Mont-Royal and Namur metro

    RÉSEAU ÉLECTRIQUE MÉTROPOLITAIN Fact sheets (Alignment optimization) Environmental Impact Study 0 Nom de la présentation Process and approach RÉSEAU ÉLECTRIQUE MÉTROPOLITAIN (REM) • The Environmental Impact Study for the REM comprises thousands of pages, including three addenda. With a transparency objective in mind, CDPQ Infra has prepared several information documents summarizing the study to make the contents of the study more accessible: – A summary report on the study which shows the project’s evolution over the past few months; – A shorter summary setting out the main elements; and – Fact sheets showing the most recent changes in the project’s route. • The following fact sheets provide an overview of the most recent optimizations of the route, made since June. • Various fact sheets will be issued from time to time to track progress on the project and maintain ongoing dialogue. Environmental Impact Study – July 28, 2016 FACT SHEET 1 – Cultural heritage RÉSEAU ÉLECTRIQUE MÉTROPOLITAIN (REM) Objective: prevent and minimize impacts on buildings with heritage potential caused by the connection between REM and Central Station in the Griffintown neighbourhood. The access to Central Station, using CN elevated tracks, allows the various branches to be connected in a single integrated network. • At present, the scenario analyzed for the construction of civil-engineering structures between Notre-Dame Street West and St. Paul Street West might require partial demolition of the rear section of the Rodier Building. • Other options that would avoid affecting this heritage building are however still being analyzed. • Optimization of the route in this sector has made it possible to avoid affecting the New City Gas Building, as well as various buildings in the block formed by Wellington-Ann-Brennan streets, eliminating the need for demolition of the Drummond-McCall Building*.
