The RTC did not want to answer our questions on the subject in order to clarify the scope of this approach. “Communications will follow later,” said spokesperson Raphaëlle Savard.

The tender documents specify that the one-stop shop will take the form, among other things, of a mobile application and a website accessible to customers.
There is talk of commercial entry into service in October 2025, an initial deployment in the agglomeration of Quebec and the city of Lévis and a “territorial extension to the entire metropolitan region of Quebec” in 2026 .

However, the documentation refers to possible partnerships with other services such as STLévis, PLUmobile on Côte-de-Beaupré, TC Jacques-Cartier, Communauto or even the Société des ferryiers.
Municipal parking lots, taxis and carpooling are other examples of services cited.
