About

? IMPORTANT – Partial Closure of the Petit Témis Interprovincial Linear Park

A section of the trail remains closed at all times between Route Bossé (Saint-Louis-du-Ha! Ha!) and the southern end of Principale Street (Saint-Honoré-de-Témiscouata), between kilometres 53 and 56 of Route 185, due to ongoing construction of Autoroute 85.

? Shuttle Service Extended

The Ministry of Transport now offers a free shuttle service 7 days a week, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., until September 1, 2025.

The trail is not accessible outside shuttle hours.

Cyclists are asked not to use Route 185 for safety reasons.

All bike types and accessories are accepted: e-bikes, fatbikes, tricycles, trailers, child seats.

Clear signage has been installed at both ends of the closed section.

? The shuttle service will return one last time in summer 2026.
