montréal STM - Discussion générale

[jesseps]

I wonder how much money STM would need, to use barriers (similar to the ones used in Europe and Asia) to stop people from tossing smoke bombs onto metro lines and also stopping people from trying to commit suicide. Seeing yesterdays smoke bomb stunt cost supposedly $15 million.

Selon La Presse, au moins une bombe a été lancée à partir du train, lorsque celui-ci était en marche.

Des barrières n'auraient malheureusement rien changé, dans ce cas.

Consulter le temps que ça prend en transport en commun à partir d'un point spécifique.

Vous pouvez facilement déterminer votre point de départ et le temps de transport...

Dans les commentaires se la STM sur leur page facebook, on aprends le nom du bureau d'architecte qui donnera une nouvelle peau à la station Berri-UQAM.

 

Q

Si le nouveau concept architectural est actuellement en développement, c'est que le bureau d'architecte a déjà été choisi? De qui s'agit-il?

 

R

Il s'agit de la firme Affleck de la Riva/ Martin Marcotte&BeinHaker (Martin Marcotte&BeinHaker a fait la Station De la Concorde) .

Quelle station aura une nouvelle peau?

[brubru]

Oups, Berri-UQAM.

So were in for a nice surprise regarding Berri. I find De la Concorde one of the nicest stations.

World's 10 best metro systems

5. Montreal, Canada

 

With one of the lowest carbon footprints for metro networks in the world, STM is friendly to both city commuters and the environment. Kudos to the Canadians for not killing whales with trains.

Nudged along in its infancy by the 1967 World's Fair and 1976 Olympics, Montreal has built the largest metro rail system in Canada, though at 69 kilometers, that isn't saying much.

 

Still, Montreal isn't sitting on its green laurels. Come 2014, 468 shiny new train carriages will be rolled out, replacing more than half of the older cars.

APTA released its 1st quarter 2012 numbers. I think they screwed up Montreal's STM numbers, because it doesn't make any sense.

 

For the first three months of 2011, they had:

daily metro users: 1,111.7 (thousands)

daily bus users: 1,403.7 (thousands)

for a total of 2,524.5 (thousands)

 

For 2012, they have:

metro users: 616.9 (thousands)

bus users: 816.2 (thousands)

for a total of 1,443.1 (thousands).

 

There is no way there are 1.1 million LESS daily users on the STM network. Someone screwed up.

2011 numbers: http://www.apta.com/resources/statistics/Documents/Ridership/2011_q1_ridership_APTA.pdf

BIG BIG mistake.

There is no way 616,000 people use the metro per day. Its more like 1,150,000 daily
