  • Here is the full video of the major metro disruption that resulted in the evacuation of around 16 metro stations on the evening of Wednesday, February 16, 2022 at around 10:00 p.m. EST.
    You can see the short version of just the evacuation announcement in this video here:
    • ⚠️ Massive Montreal Me...
    -----
    On the evening of Wednesday, February 16, 2022 at around 10:00 p.m. a Code-900 (dangerous matériels present) sounded for Frontenac Metro Station on the Green Line of the Montreal Metro system.
    Most likely, it was a result of someone releasing pepper spray, an incident that ironically happened at the same station earlier in the day
    After I heard the announcement, I headed towards Berri-UQAM on the Orange Line, but by the time I got to the station, the metro service has returned to normal.

    What’s even more hystorical is that they made the announcement both in French and in English. Very rare for the STM.

    Wednesday the 16th?? I was in the metro that day! There was another disruption that day on the yellow line because of an equipment problem between 11:40 AM and 12:05 PM! I left the metro by the yellow line at about 3:30 PM! I got lucky.

    I suppose having to evacuate 16 stations is done so with an abundance of caution factored in. Fortunately there wasn't a serious vehicular collision resulting in a catastrophic fire/fatalities, a worse case scenario.

      Thanks for the comment George! Good point indeed. It was a pepper spray that someone released I believe. I'm going to reply to your emails Friday and I plan to get a piece of Coronet Pizza Friday night!

    during a code 900-07 they need to evacuate all 5 stations form both directions to push out with the big vents all the hazardious stuffs. If it's happen by exemple at Villa-Maria Station , they need to count 4 stations on the blue Line to evacuate. if you have more questions i'm a employee in the metro

      My french is not very good but I'm trying to learn haha. I was curious what Code 106 meant? I hear it occasionally. Also, what are the controls for in the older ticket booths behind the ticket agent? Merci!

      @@SkyOfTheUniverse sorry for the delay , the code 106 is for the emergency supervisor, if i remember , they are 2 or 3 supervisor , 1 at Lionel Groulx and the second is at Jean Talon and the last i think is at Berri Uqam. The old control pannel behing the ticket agent is the old way to control the gates , the escalator and you have a old people counter. We doesn't use anymore because all this things are now on one computer. I hope that answered your questions.
