The city of Delson will see its first metropolitan bus line begin service on Monday, August 24, 2026. The new route runs along Taschereau Boulevard and provides a direct connection between Delson and the Yellow line of the Montreal Metro system.
The Taschereau circuit is the inaugural bus route to carry the ‘metropolitan’ label. By linking the suburban community with the Yellow line, the service creates a continuous public‑transport corridor that bridges the gap between the two municipalities. The line follows the main thoroughfare of Taschereau Boulevard, a central artery that has been designated for the new transit connection.
Officials from both Delson and the Montreal Metro have highlighted the significance of the launch, noting that it marks the first time a bus line in the region has been classified as metropolitan. The designation underscores the intent to integrate suburban and urban transit networks, offering riders a streamlined option for travel between the suburb and the city’s rapid‑transit system.
The start of service on August 24 aligns with broader efforts to expand public‑transport options in the Greater Montreal area. Residents of Delson will now have a direct, scheduled link to the Yellow line, potentially reducing reliance on private vehicles for trips into the city. The new route is expected to serve commuters, students, and other passengers seeking efficient access to Montreal’s metro network.
The introduction of the Taschereau metropolitan bus line represents a coordinated step toward greater connectivity across the region, providing a tangible link between Delson’s local streets and the extensive reach of the Montreal Metro.
