Updates scheduled in the upcoming days
 
Hello,

This is to advise you that as of today, it is possible that several updates will take place until December 31st for 20 minutes at most, always between 10pm and 11pm, which may result in some service interruptions.

Impact on FLEX vehicles

Starting a trip:
During this period of (at most) 20 minutes, it will not be possible to start a trip.

Ending a trip:
During this period, it will not be possible to end a trip with the mobile app. However, if you used a key fob to access the vehicle before the start of the service interruption, you will be able to complete your trip during the update. It is therefore strongly recommended to use your key fob or your OPUS card (or your Multi card in Gatineau) to access your vehicle if you plan to start a short trip during this period to avoid being affected when ending it.


If you still used the app to access a vehicle, here is how to end your trip even though you won't be able to use the app to do so:

  • if your vehicle starts with a key, use the door buttons to lock the doors, your trip will end automatically after 3 minutes (you do not have to wait until the 3 minutes have elapsed before leaving the vehicle);
  • if your vehicle is equipped with a push-button start, close the doors and wait 3 minutes for the automatic locking mechanism to engage (this will simultaneously release the vehicle).

At all times, it is important to ensure that the doors are properly locked before leaving the vehicle.

Impact on round-trip vehicles

Starting a trip:
During this period of (at most) 20 minutes, it will be possible to start a trip provided you have made your reservation at least 30 minutes before 10pm and if you use a fob key 
or your OPUS card (or your Multi card in Gatineau) to access the vehicle.

Ending a trip:
The instructions here are the same as those that apply when using a FLEX vehicle (see above), with the difference that once the update is complete, it will still be necessary to click on "Release" to shorten your reservation if you return the vehicle before the end of the initial period you had reserved. Learn more.
