Good news: While there’s zero metro and bus service this weekend, rides will be free all weekend on Montreal’s new REM line.
To mark the opening of the new Deux-Montagnes and McGill line after 6 years of construction, the new line features 14 stations which will be officially inaugurated on Friday, November 14, 2025.
Three of the stations connect to the Montreal metro system: Bonaventure (orange), McGill (green) and Édouard-Montpetit (blue).
Ironically, visitors won’t be able to take the STM metro or buses to get there due to the planned bus and metro operator strike this weekend.
When will REM Deux-Montagnes open?
To celebrate the opening of the new line, all REM lines will be free on Saturday, November 15, 2025, and Sunday, November 16, 2025, as part of two open-house days.
The new Deux-Montagnes branch of the REM will officially enter service on Monday morning, starting at 5:30 a.m.
Connecting Downtown Deux-Montagnes to Downtown Montreal, this is a game-changer for commuters.
