Regional transportation

The objective of the regional transportation service is to provide the population with a safe, reliable, responsive, integrated and affordable passenger transportation service that contributes to improving the quality of life of Acadian Peninsula residents.

*Pilot project (1 bus Caraquet – Shippagan)

Representing both a growing need for rural areas and a mandate given to RSCAP’s under local governance reform, this service (when fully launched) will offer greater mobility to the citizens of our region by providing access to travel from one point to another on the Acadian Peninsula. Whether for economic or environmental reasons, users of this service will have an affordable, safe and reliable way to get to work, school, appointments or shopping by the end of 2024, we hope.
