AI Article Summary
Montreal's newly opened Réseau express métropolitain (REM) connects the South Shore to the northern suburbs via downtown with 19 stations. At peak times, it can carry 42,100 passengers and operates with high frequency. While concerns exist about potential service disruptions, communication and contingency plans have been established.
