School transportation accessible to citizens living on the CSHBO territory

An agreement between the Commission scolaire des Hauts-Bois-de-l’Outaouais (CSHBO), the Guichet unique en transports adaptés et collectifs de la Vallée-de-la-Gatineau (GUTAC) and the TransporAction Pontiac was concluded in September with the goal of increasing the mobility of the population on the territory. Citizens living in the area covered by the school board, in addition to adult students attending vocational or general training programs, can now occupy available places on board school buses operating in the region. People who use this new collective service must, however, comply with certain requirements, such as a background check.
