Are you familiar with the REM project?<\/u><\/strong><\/h3>\n

REM stands for Réseau express métropolitain de Montréal, a new light-rail transit network. In a few years’ time, it will include 26 stations that are universally accessible and will span Greater Montreal with 67 km of track. By comparison, Montreal’s metro network is 71 km long. Work began in January 2020 and should continue until the end of the year.<\/p>\n

The REM will be in service 20 hours a day and will connect with the metro at three stations (Bonaventure, McGill, Édouard-Montpetit). The line will be 100% electric and will connect downtown Montreal with the airport, which are definite advantages.<\/p>\n

The Édouard Montpetit station <\/u><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Since August 5, 2020, the Édouard Montpetit station has been gradually taking shape, and AGF is working daily to build the rebar structure for this project, which represents about 143 MT of steel. Are you looking forward to getting on board?<\/p>\n

Here are some photos of the progress on the station, from 2018 to today:<\/p>\n
