Transport information Covid 19
Public Transportation
Wearing a mask is mandatory on public transportation in the RTM network (bus, subway, tramway, shuttles) but also in other modes of transport (trains, planes, intercity buses …). Controls and verbalizations are planned.
In addition to barrier gestures (physical distancing in particular), wearing a mask adds a physical barrier when you are in contact with other people and therefore helps to reduce the risk of contamination. Find here all the information about the RTM network.

FAQ Covid 19
-
What are the barrier gestures to be respected ?
Confronted with the proven increase in the number of contact cases, vigilance and discipline are more important than ever.
In the absence of treatment, the best protection for you and your loved ones is, at all times, the respect of barrier measures and physical distancing:
- It is mandatory to use a mask in public transport and enclosed public places (shops, administrations, theaters, etc.).
- In the open air – especially when gathering together – when physical distancing proves to be complicated, wearing a mask remains the right reflex.
- Respect the instructions of the shopkeepers (especially the number of people allowed to enter the stores at the same time).
- In the queues and at the time of possible meetings, respect the distance (1 meter minimum) recommended by the health authorities.
- Salute without shaking hands, avoid hugs.
- Wash your hands with soap or a hydro-alcoholic solution before and after (and possibly during) each outing.
- Cough or sneeze into your elbow. Use disposable tissues.
- Avoid touching your face.
