The XYZ project follows in the wake of the Déclaration du gouvernement du Québec et de la Ville de Montréal to revitalize Montréal East. Many projects are underway to give a new impetus to this sector. Increased mobility, economic development, and improved living environments are at the heart of this ambitious project. For more information, see Québec.ca/RevitalisationEstMontreal (in French only).
THE 2019 SEASON IS OVER!
A special thank you to everybody who used the shuttle this summer.
This summer, save time on the road and enjoy a relaxing moment on the beautiful St. Lawrence River. Returning this year for an extended period, the the River Shuttle pilot project provides a link between Old Pointe-aux-Trembles at the corner of Saint-Jean-Baptiste Boulevard and Bellerive Street in the Rivières-des-Prairies--Pointes-aux-Trembles borough, and Jacques-Cartier Pier in the Old Port of Montreal.
This pilot project will serve to gauge the interest of commuters and students in taking an alternative method of transportation into and out of the city, as well as fostering the development of eastern Montreal and the historic Vieux-Pointe-aux-Trembles neighborhood.
