Montreal, 11 May 2004 – Because of the construction work extending the métro into Laval, new signalling equipment has been installed and requires testing. To minimize the impact on customer service, the STM and AMT have agreed to suspend service on the métro’s 2 – Orange line between Henri-Bourassa and Berri-UQAM stations, during late evenings only, from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. on Wednesday, May 12, and from midnight to 1 a.m. on Thursday, May 13. During these interruptions, a shuttle service will be provided by bus between each closed station in both directions.

The STM and AMT wish to apologize for any inconvenience this may cause transit users and thank them for their understanding.
