SAINT-LAZARE (Québec), September 20, 2010
Ville de Saint-Lazare would like to encourage its residents to purchase
their CIT bus fare at the Saint-Lazare Pharmaprix located at
1780 Chemin Sainte-Angélique if they wish to reinvest 100% of their CIT bus fare
into Saint-Lazare’s bus service. Indeed, le Conseil Intermunicipal de
transport La Presqu’Île (CITPI) redistributes fare dividends back to
their members based on where the fare was purchased. Therefore, citizens
that purchase fares in Saint-Lazare directly contribute to
Saint-Lazare’s public transit fund. The money from fares purchased
elsewhere (Hudson, Île-Perrot, Vaudreuil-Dorion, etc.) is redistributed
based on where the fare was purchased. The CITPI fares are valid for
every route on the territory no matter where it was bought.
The OPUS card only available in Vaudreuil-Dorion
Residents can purchase CIT and TRAM fares at the Pharmaprix located at
1780 chemin Sainte-Angélique, Monday to Friday 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. and
Saturday and Sunday 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. However, the OPUS card with picture
witch gives access to reduced fares may not be purchased at this
location. Users must download the application form on the CITPI website
and go to the Service Centre in Vaudreuil-Dorion with detailed proof
status to obtain their card.
All Aboard!
The official launch of the public transit pilot project took place on
August 30. The circuit number 51 offers, Monday through Friday, seven
(7) morning trips to Vaudreuil train station and seven (7) evening
returns to Saint-Lazare. Visit ville.saint-lazare.q.ca/maps to view
