Квебек қаласының қоғамдық көлігінің даму тарихы

The modern public transit system was born on November 23rd 1969 with the Loi de la Communauté urbaine de Québec. It took the name Commission de transport de la Communauté urbaine de Québec (CTCUQ). The CTCUQ improved transit in Quebec City in numerous ways: dedicated bus lanes on certain arterial roads in 1975, express routes in 1977, and the establishment of the Parc O Bus in 1980. In this period, it also acquired multiple private bus companies and standardized fares. The organization underwent a major reorganization in 1992, and a recovery plan was implemented. Most notably, this plan put in place the Métrobus and Couche tard services, more dedicated bus lanes, and network changes. The CTCUQ became the Société de transport de la Communauté urbaine de Québec (STCUQ) in 1994. Following the municipal reorganizations of Quebec in 2002, it briefly became the Societé de transport de Québec, and finally, the Réseau de transport de la Capitale (RTC). The ridership of this network grew substantially in this period, reaching a ridership of 41.3 million in 2007. A system of electric minibuses known as Écolobus was added to the system in 2008, but later phased out in 2015. Additionally, the OPUS card was implemented for fare payment on buses. The RTC acquired 101 hybrid buses from 2012 to 2015. It has also implemented an intelligent transportation system implementing GPS tracking. A bus network computerization project known as RTC Nomade was implemented over 10 years that allows passengers to view live locations of buses online, on bus information screens, through bus audio announcements, and at stations.

BusThis is the regular bus service, including routes 1 to 185. It serves the commercial and residential sectors of the city. Those under 100 are generally in service every day, except routes 9, 22, 29, 33, 56, 65, and 88, which are not in service on the weekends. Routes in the 100s have limited stops and operate at peak periods on weekdays. MétrobusThis service includes the 800s. They are high frequency routes served by articulated buses, and they operate on major arteries, generally with dedicated bus lanes. Métrobus routes operate seven days a week, including holidays. ExpressThis service includes routes 214 to 584, which connect different residential sectors to various termini. They connect to La Cité Limoilou (200s) and to Sainte Foy–Sillery–Cap Rouge (300s to governmental and educational campuses and 500s to Laurier and De l'Église. These generally operate at peak periods on weekdays, with certain routes also operating at other times. Couche tardThis service includes the 900s. These rotues circulate at night and the evenings of Fridays and Saturdays.

The RTC operates six high frequency lines under the Métrobus brand: lines 800 through 804, and 807. Lines 800 and 801 run together from De Marly to Dorchester/de la Couronne. Line 801 continues on to Terminus du Zoo, while line 800 diverges to the Montmorency falls. Line 802, runs from Terminus Beauport to Station Belvédère. Then, line 803 runs from Terminus les Saules to Terminus Beauport, through Le Mesnil, Lebourgneuf and Charlesbourg. Line 804, links Sainte Foy with Loretteville going through the Terminus les Saules and the Université Laval campus and then finally the 807 goes between De Marly and Place D'Youville by riding along the Chemin Sainte Foy until it merges to Rue Saint Jean. Service is every 5 minutes during peak times, every 10 minutes before and after then, and every 15 minutes during less travelled times.

A study concluded in March 2003, stated the introduction of light rail transit services would be feasible for the entire area. In March 2018, a $3 billion proposal for a combination of tramways (the Quebec City Tramway), an electric trambus and reserved bus lanes was announced. In November 2019, the Réseau de transport de la Capitale announced that it is planning to open the city's first BRT line along Boulevard Charest by 2026, utilizing a fleet of bi articulated electric buses.
