- Provides express service to the Touraine area of Gatineau.
|
Interzone
- Interzone routes provide express service to the outlying areas of Buckingham and Masson-Angers.
- For a short period of time, both routes (as well as express route 88) would exit Highway 50 from Montée Paiement to take advantage of the bus lanes on Gréber/Fournier. However, due to customer complaints, this is now only done when necessary as it otherwise adds a significant amount of travel time.
