The actual links are only part of the problem. I can't believe that payment is an issue. I can't use Presto on STO to start a trip unless I buy a pass, according to the nice lady at the OC Transpo booth in Rideau. Points of friction like this shouldn't exist.

I also think Gatineau is making a mistake not converting the Rapibus corridor to LRT first. Perfect opportunity to integrate Bayview. And that corridor is practically designed to be fed by buses.
