You've performed a great public service! The route is somewhat complicated and the signage is meh.. You are a great Montrealer! (highest compliment)

I just came back from a McDonalds near Bonaventure station. I took the 411 east direction to Lionel-Groulx. From there, I took the orange line to Bonaventure and followed the signs to get to Central Station. I took me about an hour to get there, so I’m hoping that the Des Sources station (near where I live) will open soon. Edit: the 411 line doesn’t have that much bus flow. The last bus of the morning was at 9:32am. The next bus after that one is at 3:45pm, which means if I missed that I l’y would have been in deep trouble. My point is that the REM, for the moment, is inconvenient for a lot of people.

That will hopefully be my route when the REM opens the main segment. My current commute has me take the 485 out to where I work opposite Fairview. I figure I would rather take 3 more stops past LG and walk a few minutes rather than freezing my ass off waiting for a half every hour bus.

Very informative video Patrick though they could do better with the signage and directions if you happen to be from out of town imo. I do like the old black and white pix depicting the history of the station is a nice touch. I hope they keep it there or at least have a permenant. display area The art deco thing.I think it's called Mr. Boom or something but..nope not for me.

Yes I agree the signage could be much better. The art is interesting but yeah not my thing either. Better than a boring cement wall I guess.

Hopefully the REM will have an official entrance in Place Bonaventure. That make more sense and it is shorter, instead of walking 3 minutes. Why no brainer implementation in Montreal has to be so difficult sometimes!

Update: I’m not travelling to East Montréal ever again. I’ll certainly go there sometimes, but just for the REM and metro rides. I just don’t like the vibes there. There are so many beggars, homeless people and weirdos around. I was walking down the Sainte-Catherine street near Bonaventure métro this afternoon and there was a random drunk dude that started self-talking and swearing all while being like he was sleepwalking. Additionally, there are always construction sites everywhere to the point even Google Maps can’t figure out where to go. I mean, East Montreal is just an unbelievable mess. I’ve been living in Pointe-Claire for 4 years and I gotta say that West Island is a much better, quieter, cleaner, newer and safer place than Saint-Laurent or Ahuntsic-Cartierville in the East. I’ve traveled to Cote Saint Luc, Beaconsfield, Pierrefonds and Kirkland in Western Montréal many many times and I have seen little to no beggars, trash and homeless people. Even the oldest place in Western Montréal like Lachine and LaSalle are way better than most of Eastern Montreal. Though not as new and well-equipped than the Southern Shore cities like Brossard and Candiac, West Island is still very good and offers great living conditions. It’s certainly better than getting kidnapped and robbed by thugs, weirdos and addicts in Saint-Laurent. Gosh I hate Downtown Montreal!

Yes it is getting very bad in Montreal. The West Island is much safer and more relaxed. Bonaventure metro station has a lot of characters inside and outside around it. I prefer taking the train and bus to the West Island to get away from the downtown chaos haha
