Electric Bike Charging Stations

pre-construction

Prospective

The project will acquire stations called “Vélovoutes,” which feature bike racks, storage lockers and charging stations for electrically assisted bicycles (EABs) for seven municipalities in the Estrie region. This is the first phase of a larger project that will establish a network of charging stations in our region and other regions, a network that will be unique in Quebec and even in Canada. The project’s aims are to promote cycling as a means of discovering our rural areas, provide EAB users with appropriate infrastructure to position our region for this segment of visitors and help them extend their discovery of our area, increase the economic benefits for rural areas, continue to position our region as a cycling destination, and contribute to the sustainable tourism movement that promotes non-motorized transportation and interaction between residents and visitors. In concrete terms, the seven Vélovoutes will be installed in the partner municipalities, and a promotional campaign, along with suggestions for itineraries to interconnect them, will be implemented.
