A new bus network in Lachine and LaSalle

To compensate for this change, service frequency on the 107 Verdun will increase and the route will be extended in the LaSalle borough, covering a larger area and providing a direct connection to downtown.

The 61 Wellington will continue to run on Wellington Street to provide local service.

The 101 Saint‑Patrick route will be extended to LaSalle Borough Hall and connect to Angrignon métro station (Line 1 - Green line), as well as the Lafleur-Newman terminus. See the map at the bottom of the page for the new route.

Bus line 106 will be merged with 406 Express Newman bus line, which will be abolished. To accommodate this change, the 106 Newman will have enhanced service and becomes a rush-hour high-frequency line as of August 26.

The western portion of the 106 Newman route will be simplified. See the map at the bottom of the page for the new route.  

The 107 Verdun route will be extended west, taking riders all the way to CÉGEP André-Laurendeau via the Lapierre overpass. The bus will also stop at Verdun métro station (line 1 - Green line) and Square-Victoria-OACI station (line 2 - Orange line). See the map at the bottom of the page for the new route.

The following buses will now serve the area: 

114 Angrignon

123 Dollard/Shevchenko

195 Dorval/Angrignon

The 110 Centrale line will now stop closer to CÉGEP André-Laurendeau via Lapierre Street and to Carrefour Angrignon. Its route is also simplified south of the Canal de l’Aqueduc. See the map at the bottom of the page for the new route.

The 112 Airlie route is modified via Centrale Street to better serve the area south of the Canal de l’Aqueduc. See the map at the bottom of the page for the new route. 

The 113 Lapierre route will be simplified on Jean-Milot in the Oblats area. See the map at the bottom of the page for the new route.

Line 114 Angrignon will take over parts of eliminated or modified routes and provide a new north-south link in the LaSalle borough, while connecting to Angrignon métro station (Line 1 - Green line). 

See the map at the bottom of the page for the new route.

The 116 Lafleur/Norman route will be replaced by the new 190 Norman line, which will connect to Lionel-Groulx métro station (Line 1 - Green and line 2 - Orange).

The 123 Dollard line is changing south of Newman and will now run on Shevchenko Boulevard. The new 198 Broadway line will run on a portion of Dollard Avenue to accommodate this change. See the map at the bottom of the page for the new route.  

The line will become 123 Dollard/Shevchenko. Look for the label below in the bus windshield to make sure you’re boarding the right bus.

Line 190 Norman will take over parts of eliminated or modified routes and provide a connection to Lionel-Groulx métro station (Line 1 - Green and line 2 - Orange).

The line will run Monday to Friday.

This line will be replaced by the 198 Broadway, as well as the new 190 Norman bus line, which will connect to Lionel-Groulx métro station (line 1 - Green and line 2- Orange).

The 195 Dorval/Angrignon route has been modified to improve service to the Highlands and Oblats neighbourhoods in LaSalle. See the map at the bottom of the page for the new route.  

The line will become 195 Dorval/Angrignon. Look for the label below in the bus windshield to make sure you’re boarding the right bus.

To accommodate this change, the 106 Newman will become a rush-hour high-frequency line with enhanced service starting August 26, 2024.

The 491 Express Lachine route is changing to make the line more efficient and make use of the reserved lane on Highway 20 to downtown. See the map at the bottom of the page for the new route.

Several sections of this route are changing to make it easier to travel between Lachine and LaSalle. See the map at the bottom of the page for the new route.

To better reflect the new route, the line will become 198 Broadway.

No. The bus network redesign affects daytime service only.

Despite our best efforts to optimize service, the reality is that changing a bus network as big as the STM’s will make some trips more efficient and others less so.

In some cases, that might mean a longer walk or an extra bus transfer. However, our current network usage data indicates that the redesign will benefit six times more trips than it will inconvenience.

Buses 107 Verdun, 112 Airlie and 496 Express Victoria will be added to the rush-hour high-frequency lines already in service : the 90 Saint-Jacques and the 406 Express Newman, which will become the 106 Newman. 

Most bus shelters of stops relocated in the redesign will be moved elsewhere in the area. That said, since there are many bus shelters that need to be relocated, and it’s a technically complex process (pour the concrete slabs, hook up the electricity, etc.), some bus shelters will not be replaced until after the launch of the redesign in late August 2024.

The REM YUL-Montréal-Trudeau airport station is scheduled to open in 2027 according to CDPQ Infra. It is indeed planned to make certain adjustments to the bus network at this time to ensure a connection to this new REM station. Details of this bus connection will be communicated in due course.
