if you’re looking for something to do this summer in #montreal, you can attend one of the free guided tours at city hall. the visit is about an hour long and is super interesting since the building has been recently renovated.
via rail announces the co-development of a new train station in dorval that will serve both via and exo at the same place. (there are two stations right next to each other right now.) media.viarail.ca/en/press-rel...
today, i took the train to visit this low-income housing complex that was completely renovated a few years ago. a few buildings were demolished to make way for this shared street to increase the sense of belonging and safety. 📍 habitations saint-michel nord, #montreal
apple maps is in #montreal today (spotted just now in griffintown)
the #montreal metro is being extended on the island for the first time in more than 30 years. the tunnel boring machine has recently started its trip to anjou!
if you're looking for new places to discover in #montreal this spring-summer, check out the parc de la traversée in pointe-aux-trembles. this linear park is 4.25 km long and was built on an old railway right of way.
instead of making westminster avenue safer for all users, montreal west decided to install signs like this one (there’s not a single metre of bike lanes in this city btw)
beautiful day to bike in #montreal (and for montrealers, guess my location!)
je soumets les terminus côte-vertu et radisson à cause du manque d'espace pour attendre le bus! et l'arrêt de la 55 et de la 363 au coin de saint-urbain et ontario dans la bande cyclable.
i wish the seat map on via's website showed the windows, it would be useful when you want to pick your seat. personally, I use these pictures i took on the train.
