REM Travel Info

Since November 17, 2025, the Réseau express métropolitain (REM) has been serving Laval. 

 

The REM is an automated light metro system in the Greater Montréal area. Currently, 23 stations are in service, connecting Brossard, Deux‑Montagnes, and Sainte‑Anne‑de‑Bellevue (Anse‑à‑l’Orme). In the future, an additional branch will be added to the network, serving Montréal‑Trudeau Airport.

 

Two REM stations are located in Laval: 

  • SainteDorothée REM Station (served by the STL) 
  • ÎleBigras REM Station (not served by the STL) 

 

Some STL routes also serve the Bois‑Franc and Du Ruisseau REM stations in Montréal.

STL routes serving the REM

Route 203, 226, 244, 251 and 255 provide an efficient way to get around, especially during peak periods. 

Routes 26 and 226

Notre-Dame – REM Sainte-Dorothée Corridor

Service in the Sainte‑Dorothée area (Notre‑Dame Blvd. and Samson Blvd.) and at the Sainte‑Dorothée REM station

 

Route 26 runs between the Sainte‑Dorothée REM station and Montmorency metro station.

 

Route 226 complements Route 26 by offering an alternative for customers travelling westbound, without needing to go all the way to the Sainte‑Dorothée REM station. 

Customers can take either Route 26 or Route 226. The route is the same for both starting from the intersection of Sylvie Street and Dandurand Street, all the way to the metro. 

By balancing ridership between the two routes, trips are more comfortable. 

Route 226 Westbound – Direction SainteDorothée (End of Samson Blvd.) This route starts at Montmorency metro station and ends at the intersection of Sylvie Street and Dandurand Street, near Samson Blvd. 

Route 226 Eastbound – Direction Montmorency metro station This route starts at the intersection of Sylvie Street and Dandurand Street, near Samson Blvd., and ends at Montmorency metro station.

Routes 55, 255 and 713

On Saturdays and Sundays at all times, as well as on weekdays before 6 a.m. and after 9 p.m., Route 55 no longer serves Henri‑Bourassa Blvd. between Grenet Street and the metro station. 

If you have an All Modes AB fare, it may be more convenient to plan a trip using another bus route to a metro station. 

If you are using a Bus fare only, you can take Route 255, get off at the Grenet / Ranger stop, and transfer to STM Route 164 toward Henri‑Bourassa.

Alternatives in place in the event of a REM disruption

During any REM service interruption, the STL provides a support service, both on weekdays and weekends. 

If a planned REM interruption occurs (for example, due to maintenance work), the STL will provide shuttle bus service. Information will be shared on this page. 

If one of the following situations occurs unexpectedly and lasts more than 20 minutes on the Deux‑Montagnes branch (Line A4), the STL will implement measures to help you travel between stations that remain in service: 

  • Complete shutdown of the REM network between Gare Centrale and Deux‑Montagnes 
  • Closure of the Mont‑Royal tunnel 
  • Service disruption between Bois‑Franc and Deux‑Montagnes 
  • Service disruption between Sainte‑Dorothée and Deux‑Montagnes 

The following alternatives are offered by the STL depending on the situation. The diagrams below illustrate the service provided in each case. You will find detailed explanations further below.
