New Wheelchair Accessible Transit for Cabot Trail

Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Canada

The Town of Chéticamp and surrounding communities will have access to improved and accessible transportation services after an investment of more than $300,000 from the federal government.

This investment through the Rural Transit Solutions Fund was announced by Parliamentary Secretary Mike Kelloway and Cyril Camus, President of La Coopérative de Transport de Chéticamp, better known as L'Acabie.

The funding will help purchase five new hybrid vehicles, two of which are wheelchair accessible, and one of which is replacing an older gas-powered van. With these vehicles, L'Acabie will be able to better serve residents, particularly seniors and individuals with a disability, helping them get around their community easily and conveniently.
