Once notified, STL will then notify Laval residents through its website. Commuters can expect to pay only one dollar for their transportation on those days, rather than the usual three dollars.<\/p>\n<div>\n\u201cThis is STL&#8217;s way of promoting and encouraging public transit,\u201d STL spokeswoman Marie-C\u00e9line Bourgault said. \u201cIt&#8217;s also how we do our part to help improve the quality of air within the community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The STL didn&#8217;t receive any smog alerts last year, or in the operation&#8217;s first year in 2008.
