As expected!
Bleu FM has learned that Transports Québec has refused the request of Gaspé stakeholders, including Gaspé MNA Stéphane Sainte-Croix and Haute-Gaspésie Prefect Guy Bernatchez, as well as the Fédération des motoneigistes du Québec, who wanted to obtain Québec’s agreement to allow snowmobilers wanting to tour the Gaspé to use Route 132 in Rivière-Madeleine because of a footbridge that is unusable on the white trails.
This news, which is not encouraging for the region, was confirmed to us in an interview by the director of the Fédération des motoneigistes du Québec, Stéphane Desroches, who learned about it through the MTQ office no later than Monday evening. And the reasons for the refusal are multiple.
