How does carpooling from Montréal to Gatineau work?
Montréal to Gatineau is a little over two hours on the 40 and the 50, the all-Québec way to the Ottawa River. Riders bound for downtown Ottawa often take this ride and cross a bridge at the end, and public servants and UQO students make Friday and Sunday the busy days.
Leaving Montréal
Rides usually start downtown Montréal or in NDG, or in Laval for drivers taking the 50 from the north side.
Arriving in Gatineau
They end in Buckingham or Masson-Angers first off the 50, the Gatineau sector, Hull near UQO, or across a bridge in downtown Ottawa.
Worth knowing
The 50 stays in Québec the whole way, so this is the ride to take if Gatineau, not Ottawa, is where you are going.
