  • Topic Sheets REGION LAND TRANSPORTATION
    REGION QUEBEC AND LÉVIS Topic Sheets © Dominique Baby The cities of Quebec and Lévis are part of the Communauté métropolitaine de Québec (CMQ), which includes a total of 28 municipalities. These two cities represent 85% of the total population of the CMQ which numbers 751 990 inhabitants in all. The special feature of this region is that it is divided by the St. Lawrence River, a natural barrier crossed by 35% of the residents of Lévis daily as they go to work in Quebec City! In 2006, 80% of the active population active of the CMQ travelled to work by car. More specifically, 5% 1 of the population of Lévis and 10% 2 of the population of Quebec used shared transportation for these trips. Did you know that ridership on the Réseau de transport de la Capitale (RTC) increased from 37.5 to 45.6 million pas - sengers between 2004 and 2008, an increase of more than 20% ? LAND TRANSPORTATION Before the construction of the Quebec Bridge, it was necessary to take a ferry or wait for the winter to cross the St. Lawrence, when an ice bridge joined the two shores. Quebec’s two bridges were built at the narrow - est point of the river, about 10 km upstream from Old Quebec . The name “Quebec” comes from the Algonquin word “kebec,” which means “where the river narrows.” THE QUEBEC BRIDGE From the time that construction began in 1904, the bridge collapsed twice, before finally being opened in 1919. Some debris from the bridge can still be seen today at low tide.

QIP investments have reached a historic high, i.e. $130.5 billion over the next 10 years, up $15.1 billion from the last fiscal year. This means a total increase of over $30.1 billion that our Government is dedicating to the QIP for two years, an unprecedented but essential initiative to keep the infrastructure portfolio in good condition and support its growth based on emerging needs. Four priorities have been put forward in the development of the 2020-2030 QIP: education, with an additional $5.9 billion, mainly to expand and build primary and secondary schools; public transit, with an additional $3.3 billion and several new projects under study; health, which will benefit from an additional $2.9 billion, in part to build seniors' residences; and culture, with the deployment of the cultural itinerary of various cultural infrastructure in different regions of Québec.
