Terminus Henri-Bourassa
bus station in Montreal, Canada
Terminus Henri-Bourassa is a ARTM bus terminus located at 590 Henri Bourassa Boulevard East next to the Henri-Bourassa Metro station.
Connecting bus routes
Before the Orange Line of the Montreal Metro was extended into Laval in 2007, 28 of the 34 Société de transport de Laval (STL) bus routes ended here, at the north terminal. Most of those routes (or their successors) were modified to terminate at either Montmorency or Cartier stations. Some inter municipal bus routes were also modified to take advantage of the closer stations. This left the old large north facility underutilised, and the waiting room (including the toilets) was closed as of Monday January 21, 2008, with the rest of the terminus closed in late 2015. All platforms at the rebuilt south annex are completely used by all buses.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Terminus Henri-Bourassa” as bus station in Montreal, Canada. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the places & architecture register because the source frames it as bus station in Montreal, Canada. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Maps, plans, fabric surveys and administrative records can establish how the site’s name, extent and function changed over time. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 25, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q7702866. The first chronological checks are 2007, 2008 and 2015.
Modern boundaries and familiar names can conceal earlier jurisdictions or structures that do not align with the present site. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
