March 27, 2021, South Shore REM Station

Eight  bicyclists who are big supporters of public transit and self propelled travel gather to depart 

on a tour to visit  the construction site of the new station for the South  Shore portion of the REM.  It is basically the Deux-Montagnes train from Central Station to Deux-Montagnes  (open since 1917 and now closed for 2 years) plus an arm that goes to the airport and one that goes to Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue.

                                           

   Ready to head south on this temperature dropping  day. 

   Our route 42 kms,  4 hours

Reaching  the  heights  of the Champlain bridge

   Enjoying the St Lawrence River view from the heights 

   Entering an  iconic Canadian construction zone

                                               The  new Du Quartier Rem station

 A lot of  nationalist colour along the way enjoying the day.
