Arrival by intercity transport from Sherbrooke

A direct intercity transportation service between Sherbrooke and Montreal is available with Autobus Limocar (limocar.ca).

The first express departure to Montreal begins at 5:45 am and a second departure is scheduled at 7:00 am, from the terminus in downtown Sherbrooke. An express line to Montreal from the main campus of Université de Sherbrooke is available at 6:00 am only. The arrival at Montreal Central Station is at 8:10 am in the case of the two express lines from 5:45 am and 6:10 am and at 8:10 am, for the 7:00 express.

Arrival by intercity transport from Quebec City

For participants coming from Quebec City, Autobus Orléans Express (orleansexpress.com) offers a first departure to Montreal at 6:30 am, but the arrival with the first departure is only around 9:30 am in Montreal.

It is therefore better to arrive the day before or to travel by carpooling.

By subway

The STM's network of four subway lines (known as the metro) and nearly 200 hundred bus routes serves 2.5 million riders a day on the Island of Montreal. That makes it the mostly heavily used transit system in Canada. Off-island commuters in Laval and Longueuil can also hop on the metro.

The green line of the metro runs directly below the Sir George Williams Campus downtown, stopping at Station Guy-Concordia. A network of tunnels connects most buildings on campus to the metro.
