The temporary of- fice is currently situated in the former bowling alley, on Louis- bourg street. That location is temporary though, as the SAAQ is likely to launch a call for tenders for office space, probably during the first weeks of 2017. The SAAQ is targeting Bonaventure again for the permanent office. Since May, the users had to go to Car- leton or Chandler in order to get their services.
