Jun 10, 2025 | 2:01 AM

MONTREAL — Montreal’s transit maintenance workers are in the second day of a strike that is causing widespread disruptions in the network.

The 2,400 workers began striking on Monday after more than a year of negotiations.

Bus and subway service is being limited to morning and afternoon rush hours and late at night.

Regular service will be maintained from Friday to Sunday for the Canadian Grand Prix, but will be restricted on other days until the strike ends June 17.

The head of the maintenance workers union is warning that the strike could escalate if a deal isn’t reached.
