As part of a unique partnership with the Montreal Canadiens, the Société de transport de Montréal (STM) has introduced an exciting initiative for hockey fans. The STM has replaced the usual announcements in the Montreal Métro with messages celebrating the Canadiens during the playoffs.
Celebrating Hockey in Public Transportation
This one-time initiative aims to enhance the playoff atmosphere for the hockey community. By integrating Canadiens-themed announcements, the STM enhances the experience for fans traveling throughout the city.
“Go Habs Go” Message on Buses
In addition to the Métro announcements, the STM is also updating bus line displays to show support for the Canadiens. Passengers may notice messages like “Go Habs Go!” on the screens of their buses during their travels.
- This display is optional and determined by the bus driver.
- Updates are being implemented across a fleet of approximately 2,000 buses.
- The updates are ongoing, with each vehicle requiring individual adjustments.
The STM’s efforts aim to engage fans and create a vibrant atmosphere in the city as the Canadiens strive for playoff success. This collaboration represents a significant moment for both the transportation network and the local hockey community.
