Current situation
Today, the service is running as usual.
A maintenance workers’ strike is scheduled to begin on Monday, June 9, and will end on Tuesday, June 17, at 11:59 p.m. It will run nine days total.
We recommend planning ahead and allowing extra time for your travel during this period.
Impact on bus and métro services
At this time, there is no impact on bus, metro or paratransit services.
We make every effort to minimise the impact of pressure tactics on your movements in order to ensure a certain level of essential services.
During the strike, bus and métro services will continue, but only during peak hours and evenings. Please refer to the table below to better understand how this may affect your public transit use.
Paratransit service will be maintained at all times.
Scheduled service on school bus lines maintained.
For the Canadian Grand Prix weekend (June 13, 14 and 15), the regular weekend schedule will be in effect.
If possible, we encourage you to consider active transportation options such as walking or biking, or to work from home during the strike period.

Status of negotiations
The STM is currently in the process of renewing collective agreements with four of its six unions. Active negotiations are ongoing.
A strike notice must be filed with the Tribunal administratif du travail (TAT) seven days in advance. The TAT then assesses whether essential service levels are adequate to ensure public health and safety. Once this is confirmed, the union may legally proceed with the strike.
Frequently Asked Question
Service offered
No. These services will continue to operate at 100%.
Essential services are those deemed necessary to protect public health and safety and must be maintained during a labour dispute (strike). The STM and the union held several discussions to agree on which services would continue. This agreement was reviewed by the Administrative Labour Tribunal (TAT), which confirmed on June 2 that the plan was sufficient to ensure public health and safety during the June 9–17 strike.
No. For safety reasons, stations will be closed when service is not running, as striking maintenance workers are responsible for essential equipment like elevators and escalators.
Not necessarily. It’s important to plan ahead, leave early and, if possible, consider walking, biking or working from home.
A bus can only depart if it can complete its full route before the service ends.
Metro trains follow the same rule: the last train leaves the terminus only if it can complete its full trip before the cutoff. This means the last train may have already passed your station. Here are the metro departure times during the strike on June 9, 10 and 11:

Yes. During regular service periods (peak hours and June 13–15), schedules will be up to date across all STM information tools.
Outside these periods, we encourage transit users to follow special notices displayed on STM tools, as regular schedule data may not be accurate. We will keep you informed of any new developments.
Trains must be moved into position across the network to be ready at the start of each authorized service window. These out-of-service movements ensure service can start on time while staying within approved hours.
