*With the arrival of the third-generation LFSs, STO is now able to provide wheelchair accessible service, but only on certain routes. With the first fifteen units arriving in 2009, STO guaranteed wheelchair-accessible service on routes 36, 37, and 300, but only between 9AM-3PM on weekdays. With the arrival of 27 units in 2010, STO extended wheelchair-accessible service all day on the same routes, as well as adding service to route 38. Wheelchair accessible trips are shown with a [http://i.imgur.com/wGkd9.jpg| glyph on the destination signs.] | *With the arrival of the third-generation LFSs, STO is now able to provide wheelchair accessible service, but only on certain routes.

Reduced Fare |
- The ZAP pass is only available to those 16 and under. It allows riders to ride the network after 6PM, or anytime on weekends and holidays and during the Christmas and March.
- Although often ignored by STO drivers and ticket sellers, a student smart card is required to take advantage of reduced ticket fares.
- Transfers and passes can be used on the OC Transpo system, and vice-versa.
- Transferring to an STO express bus requires a supplement of $0.50, and transferring to an interzone bus requires a supplement of a ticket, or the equivalent cash amount.
- Transfers are good for two hours from the time the bus leaves the terminal. Route 33 is an exception.
Accessibility
- STO never purchased any low floor buses up until 2002. While many other transit systems in Quebec were purchasing Nova's LFS, STO did not believe that they were reliable. Because of this, they continued to order Classics until their production ceased in 1997, and bought RTSs in 2000.
- Even though all LFSs in STO's fleet are equipped with a wheelchair ramp, any units equipped with a telescopic ramp at the rear door (i.e. 0910 and under) have had their ramps disabled because of unreliability.
- It wasn't until 2008 when STO began guaranteeing low-floor buses on the network, and even then, it was only on certain routes at certain times. During the week, low-floor buses were assigned to all runs that did route 36, 37, 38, and 300 between 9:00AM and 3:00PM. However, all service is provided by low-floor buses on the weekends and holidays. Although high floor buses are now rarely used outside of rush hour, there are some rush-hour runs that start or finish around noon, and the same applies to the late evening. Because of this, STO does not consider most mid-weekday service to be low-floor accessible.
- With the arrival of the third-generation LFSs, STO is now able to provide wheelchair accessible service, but only on certain routes. With the first fifteen units arriving in 2009, STO guaranteed wheelchair-accessible service on routes 36, 37, and 300, but only between 9AM-3PM on weekdays. With the arrival of 27 units in 2010, STO extended wheelchair-accessible service all day on the same routes, as well as adding service to route 38. Wheelchair accessible trips are shown with a glyph on the destination signs.
The Société de Transport de l'Outaouais provides service to the city of Gatineau, as well as the municipalities of Chelsea and Cantley in the MRC-des-Collines. Many routes travel to downtown Ottawa, where transfers can be made to OC Transpo.

- The ZAP pass is only available to those 16 and under. It allows riders to ride the network after 6PM, or anytime on weekends and holidays and during the Christmas and March.
- Although often ignored by STO drivers and ticket sellers, a student smart card is required to take advantage of reduced ticket fares.
- Transfers and passes can be used on the OC Transpo system, and vice-versa.
- Transferring to an STO express bus requires a supplement of $0.50, and transferring to an interzone bus requires a supplement of a ticket, or the equivalent cash amount.
- Transfers are good for two hours from the time the bus leaves the terminal. Route 33 is an exception.
