STL : THE SMOG ALERT IS MAINTAINED IN LAVAL UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE - Riders can take the bus for only $1

LAVAL, QC, June 30, 2023 /CNW/ - This July 1^st, customers of the Société de transport de Laval (STL) will once again be able to take the bus for only $1 due to the maintaining of the smog alert issued by Environment Canada. This special rate will therefore remain in effect throughout the day, and could be extended considering the situation, for riders paying on board in cash, credit or debit.

Launched in 2008, the STL's Smog Alert is a unique initiative in Canada. It aims to promote the use of public transit rather than the car when the air quality deteriorates to the point of falling below acceptable standards.

The STL monitors Environment Canada smog alerts until Labor Day.
