Autorité régionale de transport métropolitain (ARTM) is a regional public administration in Montreal responsible for planning, organizing, financing, developing and promoting public transit across the Montréal metropolitan area to provide simple, integrated and efficient mobility. Working under directives from the provincial minister of Transport and Sustainable Mobility, it emphasizes intermodal transport and aims to deliver a transit system that is safe, accessible, equitable and effective. Its mandates include shaping transit offerings to meet user needs (including those with reduced mobility), coordinating services to improve integration, ensuring stable metropolitan funding, managing assets and infrastructure, and promoting transit, active transportation and carpooling. Its territory encompasses the Montréal metropolitan community, the Mohawk community of Kahnawake and the City of Saint-Jérôme, and it is based in Montreal, Quebec. As a mid-sized public administration, it serves a broad transit market and has recently launched special bus tickets linked to the REM, while phasing out certain older ticket formats.
