Electric Scooters on Board

Pilot Project

Electric scooters are permitted in Gatineau. In order to give STO riders a chance to combine their modes of transportation and promote intermodality, they are allowed to board with their personal electric scooters. This pilot project will enable us to determine whether this measure would be viable over the longer term and could be coordinated with OC Transpo.
