When planning their transportation to this event, clients should call A-U-T O-B-U-S (514 288 6287) for bus schedules at their stop. For any additional information, please call STM●INFO (514 786-4636). Other useful transit information can be found on the STM website at www.stm.info The STM would like to remind transit users that the Santa Claus Parade is a great opportunity to take advantage of Family Outings. Thanks to this programme, an adult presenting a transit fare valid within the STM’s network can travel with up to five children under the age of 12 at no extra cost on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. – 30 –
