The Société de transport de l'Outaouais (STO) is getting $36 million from the federal and Quebec governments for eight transit projects.
The funding will help STO buy 36 hybrid buses, said Andre Fortin, Quebec's minister of transportation, as part of one of the projects. Some of them will replace aging buses, while others are new and will be added to busy STO routes.
