We’ve prioritized the bus network reconfiguration in the La Presqu’Île sector to coincide with the opening of the Anse-à-l’Orme branch of the Réseau express métropolitain (REM). At that point, our buses will serve the station linking the West Island to downtown Montréal.

The first phase of consultations took place in fall 2021. Our objective was to inform citizens about the reconfiguration project, enable them to discuss the subject with exo experts, and better understand their needs.

• An online information session was held on September 14. You can view it here (in French).

• The online consultation, which took place from September 13 to October 11, 2021, enabled citizens to express their needs and share their suggestions for public transit in their sector.

• Analysis of the information and data gathered will allow our experts to form the basis of our proposed service scenarios. All of the information we collected will be compiled in a consultation report produced by our partner, the Institut du Nouveau Monde (INM), which is assisting us in the process.

Phase 2 of the consultations took place from January 24 to February 24, 2023, to validate the proposed network and define areas of improvement.

For both phases of the consultations, exo is partnering with the INM, a non-partisan and independent organization whose mission is to encourage citizen involvement in democratic life. It’s role is to:

• Moderate the consultations

• Analyze the information gathered

• Ensure the integrity of the process
