Mission, vision and values

Mission

Our mission is to offer efficient sustainable public transit solutions that help people get around Gatineau and allows them to travel to where they live, work, study and play.

Vision

The Future Today.

Supported by a privileged relationship with its riders, committed partners and a dedicated team, in 2026, the STO will be the recognized leader in sustainable mobility for people living in Gatineau.

The STO will offer the preferred solution in response to regional travel needs thanks to its: 

  • simplicity;
  • efficiency;

Achieving this vision from a metropolitan perspective relies on the integrated planning of the public transit system and offer.
