“The National Capital Commission’s free shuttle from the ByWard Market to Gatineau Park will provide a convenient and environmentally sustainable way for residents and visitors to discover the fall colours of Canada’s Capital conservation park,” said Dr. Mark Kristmanson, the NCC’s chief executive officer.

The shuttle will run for the four weekends of Fall Rhapsody 2017. Dates include: Sept. 30 and Oct. 1; Oct. 7, 8 and 9; Oct. 14 and 15; and Oct. 21 and 22
