Parc linéaire interprovincial Petit Témis / section Sud

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

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

? Shuttle Service Extended

To ensure safe passage through the construction zone, the Ministry of Transport is offering a free shuttle service, now 7 days a week, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., until September 1, 2025.

The trail is completely closed outside of shuttle operating hours.

Cyclists are strongly advised not to use Route 185 for safety reasons.

Cyclists can access the shuttle from either end of the closed section.

All types of bicycles and accessories are accepted, including e-bikes, fatbikes, tricycles, trailers, and child seats.

On-site signage is in place to guide trail users.

? The shuttle service will return for a final season in summer 2026, coinciding with the final construction phase.
